JANET JACKSON - Livin In A World TheyDidn t Make lyrics

rate me

Children are called the future

Of an adult world

They are born with spirits so innocent

'Til we teach them how to hate

Add to the world's confusion

We teach our kids rules

That we don't adhere to ourselves

Right or wrong

What examples can they take?

The people we learn from

Forge the ideas we become

Livin' in a world they didn't make

Livin' in a world that's filled with hate

Livin' in a world where grown-ups

Break the rules

Livin' in a world they didn't make

Payin' for a lot of adult mistakes

How much of this madness can they take

Our children?

Children grow to become

Our young adults

Problems of the world

They must learn how to confront

Doin' drugs, joinin' gangs to rebel

Colors show they belong

To the social override

'Cause they're livin' in a space

They feel out of place

Livin' in a world they didn't make

Livin' in a world that's filled with hate

Livin' in a world where grown-ups

Break the rules

Livin' in a world they didn't make

Payin' for a lot of adult mistakes

How much of this madness can they take

Our children?

Livin' in a world they didn't make

Livin' in a world that's filled with hate

Livin' in a world where grown-ups

Break the rules

Livin' in a world they didn't make

Payin' for a lot of adult mistakes

How much of this madness can they take

Our children?

How much can they take?

Children of the world

They are all so innocent

How much can they take?

How much can they take?
