Sometimes parents think they know you.
But all you are is a mystery.
They think children are all the same,
Been there, done that, you're history.

Sometimes they fool themselves,
Saying that they care,
Telling us dangers of the world,
"It's a scary place out there"

I think what happened here,
has a simple explanation.
Kids are scared of people,
Like there parents in aggravation.

They're scared of what they might become,
Because they've seen it all before.
The people they see daily,
Ones they used to adore.

When you tell your parents this,
They're sure to get angry,
But at least there is a small percent,
Nodding to agree.

So parents please listen
I just hope you understand,
not all people are the same,
just a few in the land.

You talk when we speak,
You listen when we're silent,
Then ask "Why can't you tell us?"
"Because your way was too violent"

But kids sometimes close up,
because of what they see.
Their thoughts will lead to many things like:
"For once listen to me"
