Romeo And Juliet lyrics

Born without a chance in hell, condemned from the womb, on a one-way trip, destination an early tomb. Two kids from the hood. Two numbers on a chart. He didn't finish high school. She didn't even start. Mommy got herself pregnant to keep him around. But daddy left anyway and she's finding out what single motherhood is all about. The statistics are frightening, the odds are stifling, you may not like what you hear. Offspring's of the have-nots have even less, a world of anarchy is near and we're told we have nothing to fear. Born without a chance in hell, condemned from the womb, on a one-way trip, destination an early tomb. Two kids from the hood. Two numbers on a chart. He didn't finish high school. She didn't even start. Mommy got herself pregnant to keep him around. But daddy left anyway and she's finding out what single motherhood is all about. The statistics are frightening, the odds are stifling, you may not like what you hear. Offspring's of the have-nots have even less, a world of anarchy is near and we're told we have nothing to fear. A few years later mom and son don't have a place to rest their head. While daddy rots in San Quentin with free room and bed. Mommy O.D.'s in an empty garbage bin and her son's picture's on an empty mile carton. While the politicians play with their million dollar toys we're losing handfuls of little girls and boys. The statistics are frightening, the odds are stifling, you may not like what you hear. Offspring's of the have-nots have even less, a world of anarchy is near and we're told we have nothing to fear.
