Lyrics for State Of The World by JANET JACKSON:
| | | Artist: | JANET JACKSON |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | State Of The World | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 90 | | | | Lyrics: | Five A.M. rise and shine
To feed the baby before he starts to cry
No rest, no time to
play
15, the mother is a runaway
No time for dreams or goals
Pressure is so
strong
Her body she has sold so her child can eat
What is happening to this world we live
in
In our home and other lands
Drugs and crime spreadin on the streets
People can't
find enough to eat
Now our kids can't go out and play
That's the state of the world
today
Lil' Johnny all alone
His only friend, the doll he carries with him
Goes to
school each and every day
To be teased because he has no place to stay
This young and
homeless boy feels his life is worthless
Instead of suicide he cries himself to sleep
And
it's happenin to this world we live in
There's got to be a better way
Drugs and crime
spreadin on the streets
People can't find enough to eat
Now our kids can't go out and
play
That's the state of the world today
Can't give up hope now
Let's weather the
storm together | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
