Of My Future Children
I'll block them from this struggle,
From dilemmas that I face.
But knowledge travels quickly
With temptation at fast pace,
It's water that we cannot see
Flowing down the steepest hills.
So I'll guard my future children
From these little orange pills.
How does a person stay good and safe
From a life passed out on the floor
When there's bad in the room next door
And bad in the bathroom drawer?
Everywhere surrounded,
And everywhere exposed.
