if we could just go back
rotate, tick tock
the time on the clock
Old people struggling
young people hustling
we can make it out
just put your worries about
were planning for the future
with no hope for today
family's disintegrating
there's no hope for our generation
instead of using our mouths to talk
we pull out a gun and go "POP".
One less eater basket
another child in a casket.
