We Got It Bad

opened my eyes on a glamer smile a sweeT soft voiCe 
i haD a plaCe for everyThing , booKs , coloRs anD eveN some toys 
i was fiLLed wiTh loVe no violenCe no noiSe 
a warm little home where i had the spaCe to run 
two biG brothers had wiTh them aLL the fùn 
i was dady's prinCess anD mom's queen 
buT toDay i got ouT , do you know what i haVe seen ?
i saw colD hearTs anD empTy chastes arounD 
i saw hatred riSing anD loVe burying under the grounD 
i wiSh i couLd do someThing , do you thinK i can ?
i wanT to finD my self out here , do you reaLLy thinK i can ? 
is it suppoSe to be thiS way or we jusT got it baD ? 
is mosT of us happy or we aLl are so saD ?
a lot of quesTions i want to asK 
when wiLl we aLl taKe off the masKs ? 
i gùess noT toDay , some of us are not reaDy yet 
you know whaT ? i'm goinG baCk hoMe i miSs my briGht rooM
i miSs laYing on my beD anD looKing at the mooN
i'm going to faLL a sleeP now ! 
pleaSe , jusT waKe me ùp when it's aLL doNe
