Janet Jackson - State Of The World lyrics

Your rating:

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



 



Chorus:



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



 



Repeat Chorus



 



Can't give up hope now



Let's weather the storm together
