I'm Trying Lyric

by N/A

four year-old
at play shot
and killed
today never even
had a chance

seventeen and high
threw away his life
has a gun
to feel like he's a man
can't have it any other way
laying in the street
asking for a drink

doesn't have a place to live
pregnant at thirteen
still can hear the screams
something that she never
will forget
can't have it any other way

i'm trying to open my mind
so you can keep your faith
and i'll just walk away
there's no reason for me to stay

i'm trying to open my mind
i'm trying to make up my mind
