[Verse 1: rc]
I woke up early on a Monday
Just to make it to Sunday
I woke up - I don't wanna go to school no more
Don't wanna live for others and regret it at my funeral
Cus I've been chasin this major, strictly for the paper
And not because I love it and I find it hard to function
So I had to sit back, relax, and ask myself, who am I?
And what do i want out of this life of mine
[Hook]
We are the children and we got these dreams
We gon' chase 'em and we takin everything
We the the kids you influenced, just tryna live through the music
We don't care what you say, cus the kids gon' say, they gon' say
We ready, we ready
We ready, for whatever comes our way
We ready, we ready
We ready, you know the kids gon' play
[Verse 2: rc]
Tired of workin this calculus, so I'm workin on gettin out this b**h
The Children on the come up, my brotherhood Fullmetal Alchemist
My music is my love life - I need a date, tryna eat I need a plate
Tryna stack money cus I'm tired snack money - that's zebra cake
Sallie Mae tryna play me mang - but I ain't gon' let her though
Cus momma taught me better hoe, she give me brain, I let her go
Cus she ain't gon' pimp me, and I ain't slowin down word to Pimp C
Trap tell me sell dope - it's tempting, and the Pope be the illest MC
Cus he out here rappin verses just trappin out the churches
Stackin earnings off the people feelin worthless - so who do you trust?
While I'm out here rappin verses just tryna scratch the surface
Like a bad itch, just me, no bad b**h
Cus this earth is infatuated with fabrics
And all this with no purpose like his and her's status
But I'm a leader, somethin you dream bout
Better Martin Luther King me before I get dreams out
[Hook]
We are the children and we got these dreams
We gon' chase 'em and we takin everything
We the the kids you influenced, just tryna live through the music
We don't care what you say, cus the kids gon' say, they gon' say
We ready, we ready
We ready, for whatever comes our way
We ready, we ready
We ready, you know the kids gon' play
