UrFavGrannie - Senseless Murders Lyrics

Lord, I really need to talk to you
Is getting killed the new way to die
Is this the plan
Listen up

Our kids are the victims in these senseless murders
They're all of our sons and all of our daughters
Dying younger and younger, it's sad but it's true
So tell me what the f*ck are we supposed to do

The youth is our future, we have to do something
The future at stake, got my heart thumping
We ain't supposed to be burying our kids
We only got one life to live

Let's live it to the fullest teach our children to survive
So that when we're gone, they can still thrive
Pay attention to your kids, they need you more than you think
Even if they older, they still on the brink

They depressed and have anxiety, not getting what they need
Please spend time with your kids, I plead
Communication is the key, understand their world
It really doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl

Find a way to connect on a whole nother level
Don't let them kids walk down the road with the devil
It's important to listen to what they have to say
It's okay to cuddle, it's okay to pray

Ooh, child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter
Ooh, child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter

Kids, don't be poppin them zans or perks
Don't drink the lean even when you hurt
That shit is addictive, don't even try it
I tell you what I know, so don't go buy it

People be cappin' all the time
They use it for they raps they use it for they rhymes
Focus on success and makin' it
Stop bein' around people that be fakin' it

Settin' goals is important need somethin' to work toward
Don't need to worry about fightin' a street war
You need to understand that life is a struggle
But while gettin' through hurdles, it's okay to stumble

It's okay to make mistakes, just learn from your lessons
Don't do the same thing twice, people gon' make impressions
Live your life, be happy, be free
Whatever you do, stay out the streets

It's not the place to be, nothin' out there but trouble
Make your fam proud, grow up and be humble
Put the guns down, put your ego to the side
Think about your future not homicide

Not less of a man, if you don't shoot
Figure out another way to end your dispute
Killin' each other's whack, it's not the answer
Stop this epidemic, people droppin' like kids

You deserve to live your life, so does the next man
It doesn't really matter when the arguin' began
This shit is ridiculous, we gettin' tired
Stop pointin' the gun, stop makin' it fire

Ooh, child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter
Ooh, child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter
