Troubled Youth
Troubled youth, there is hope for you
Eyes are shut, blinded by ridicule
Troubled youth, your world has changed
Living in times that are very strange
Troubled youth, it’s time to wake
I know you’re sick of all the fakes
Troubled youth, they tell you such lies
Even in music, you get hypnotized
Troubled youth, your wounds are deep
Only God knows all the secrets you keep
Troubled youth, those who were close to you
Forgot to tell you that dreams do come true
Troubled youth, you just yearn for someone who will be there
Listen to your heart, and let you simply share
Troubled youth, you want us to look past the front you play so well
listen to the stories that you desperately need to tell
Troubled youth, I know a friend that sticks closer than a brother
Even if you don’t have a mother,
Troubled youth, this someone will hold your hand,
When everyone else just doesn’t understand
Troubled youth, raise your head high,
Call out far past the clear blue sky
In His name,
There is no shame
By His power,
You can bloom into a flower
Troubled youth, don’t give up
God can surly fill your cup
Troubled youth, life can get real scary,
In those times remember He promises that He will carry.
