Unfair
Nowadays nothing is right,
You get in trouble, start a fight,
Your mommy tells you to be good,
Your dad would tell you if he could,
But he's gone; he left your mom alone,
A young mother without a home.
Every once in a while,
She'll give up and forget to smile,
And you can see the hurt inside
The hurt she always tries to hide,
Hey life, go away life,
I'm tired of what you say life,
You're so unfair
Everything you dare
I want to die today life..
You think it's wrong, the way she gets mad,
But in her heart she's just really sad,
She wanted the best of lives for you,
But on her own that's one thing she can't do,
Don't weigh her down, she's got enough,
Her own life's getting really tough,
She was nothing but a kid herself a second ago,
And now she's got a child of her own.
Hey life, go away life,
I'm tired of what you say life,
You're so unfair
Everything you dare
I want to die today life..
