Tell me child
Child still pure
Child with mud brown eyes
What will you endure

Tell me small girl
With your hair all put up
Did you ever know you'd have
Something not juice in your cup

Tell small boy
Who runs in the sun
Did you ever know
Your friend would ruin your fun

Tell little kids
Did you see it in your dreams
The ugly mean future
And the pain that it brings

I've seen it you know
I watched your whole life
And I'll tell you right now
You never gave into the knife

You never gave up
You did good in school
You had plenty of friends
Even if you weren't cool

And even when you cry
And you don't think they care
Just ask them and check
Because they'll always be there

You may have felt lonely
But you were never alone
Your laughter to them
Like the sun shone

Live a whole life
I know you can
I'm the future you
And I'm your biggest fan
