THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
Verse 1
The first day of school has come, gone with the summer,
So the freedom is no longer, (oh, what a bummer),
And now i just look around at the people i see,
Everyone used to be so free...,
But now they dont care, live'n life by their own rules,
And you wonder why we have violence in our own schools,
Drinking underage is somehow ok,
But then they cant remember who they are the next day.

And no one seems to care...drugs seem to be peoples only answer,
Just wait, itll catch back up with them, they deal with the cancer,
And no one seems to care...its just fine to break the law every now and then,
Oh no, of course, theyll never try it again. 2x
Verse 2
This whole nations screwed, literally, can't you see the corruption?,
It's bustin, beat'n down, cuz it's been (ahem!) around,
I'm just sayin it how it is, i'm just spit'n what needs to be spit,
This world has forgotten God and the reason we even live,
The reason we even give, on sundays, it's not ok to play, (with God)
We see through it all, so take off that fasod,
It's odd, how people say God doesn't exist,
Then when a tragedy happens they always blame Him, (they like)
"God! why the heck did you let my son die?"
"God! why do you let children starve and cry?"
"God! why don't you hear your people?"
When we turned our backs on Him, we commited the evil,
"Why has He left us?" like we didn't leave Him,
"Why doesn't He do anything?" think about what we did to Him,
Are you just blind? or can you see and don't believe?,
We were the ones who left the path, He's never gonna leave.

Verse 3
Just look over there in the corner, and youll see brian
Honor roll student but inside hes dyin
Cause nobody will give him the time of day
Everyone picks on him and why is that ok?
And down the hall youll see diane
She had her course set, she had a plan
But shes believed the lies she used to be so wise
But then she got caught up with the crowd...
She messed up her life when she got pregnant
She got an abortion, but somehow thats not even murder
Because someone decided its peoples choice
Am i the only one with a voice
To scream "its wrong!" and im not ashamed to say it
And its been that way all-along
Well maybe I care, maybe I dare
To stand up, even if no one else will...
Hook
Just this one and only time, its not even that big a crime,
Well the justice system doesnt give a rip,
You got caught, your lost, and now heres a tip,
Just follow the rules...
