Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The young don't grow up, well not in this life
Big mouths and money win every time
Boy beats girl, while the sneaky and snide
Take all your money and take your pride
[Verse 2]
Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice
[Verse 3]
King for a day but their kingdom grows cold
They'll never grow up but they're bound to grow old
I remember the pain and humiliation
And I'll show them rough justice, the way that they did
[Verse 4]
Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice
[Verse 5]
Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice
[Verse 6]
Boy beats girl, while the sneaky and snide
Take all your money and take your pride
[Verse 7]
Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice
[Verse 8]
Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice
[Verse 9]
Don't call that justice
