(This one is for the children)
(Cause Lil' Mo love the kids yea)
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah
(For every child, for every human)

Looking back on yesterday

Funny how things have changed

We forgot all about the simple things

Didn't we?

Instead of getting kids off the streets

Will go and buy a diamond ring?

Put a pleasure right before priority

We're too busy sittin' here thinking about us

Need to think about the kids just because


They need our love if we are willing

So I'm asking what about the children, yeah


I even cry myself to sleep

When I see kids that are fooled to weep

Who are we to say that we don't see these things

It's in our face every day

But you turn and walk away

Open up your heart and spread some love today

We're too busy sittin' here thinking about us

Need to think about the kids just because


They need our love if we are willing

So I'm asking what about the children, yeah


Sit around just thinking about us

Need to think about the kids just because

Knowing we can change all things with the help of God

We need to see what our love can bring


They need our love if we are willing

So I'm asking what about the children, yeah

They need our love if we are willing

So I'm asking what about the children, yeah

They need our love if we are willing

So I'm asking what about the children, yeah

They need our love if we are willing

So I'm asking what about the children, yeah
