1st verse: Yo, let's save the children 'Cause they're too young to be dying And in the city mothers are crying For kids that are taken away so young And it's no fun to see the d**h of another one Another kid's life ended Another funeral for a young child I attended So let's stop the k**ing, the premature d**hs And the number of graves being filled in Back in the days outside we could play But you gotta keep the kids indoors nowadays 'Cause it ain't safe to go play in a park Leave 'em unattended and that's when the k**ing start Kids dying in gun smoke And in the city we live the people gotta have some hope So in the 90's we gotta start building Yo,let's save the children 2nd verse: Little kids being sodomized And in the city this year you're gonna hear a lot of cries Of young babies that are born addicted A girl dies from the wounds inflicted By her stepfather but no one heard her holla And if they did, the cowards didn't want to bother Another baby abandoned,just left on the street 'Cause the mother couldn't stand him My friend's baby was stolen And he would give anything in the world just to hold him The baby was sold like a slave from the past 'Cause people do anything to make a little cash I see poor kids going hungry 'Cause their crackhead mom buys d** with the money And many little children are homeless You see 'em roaming the streets looking like skin and bones It's a sad sight to see in your neighborhood Young girls sell their bodies 'cause the pay is good How many times have you seen on the news A child is k**ed and the cops don't have a clue One day it could be your own When you worry about something,your child is unknown So people,let's get it together But you gotta be willing to help save the children
