It's another night in hell
Another child won't live to tell
Can you imagine what it's like to starve to death
And as we sit free and well
Another soldier has to yell
Tell my wife and children I love them in his last breath
C'mon now amen, amen, amen
Habitual offenders, scumbag lawyers with agendas
I'll tell you sometimes people I don't know what's worse
Natural disasters or these wolves in sheep clothes pastors
Now God damn it I'm scared to send my children to church
And how can we seek salvation when our nations race relations
Got me feeling guilty of being white
But faith in human nature, our creator and our savior, I'm no saint
But I believe in what is right
C'mon now amen, amen
I said amen, amen [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/k/kid_rock/amen.html ]
Stop pointing fingers and take some blame,
Pull your future away from the flame
Open up your mind and start to live
Stop short changing your neighbors
Living off hand outs and favors, and maybe
Give a little bit more than you got to give
Simplify, testify, identify, rectify
And if I get high stop being so uptight
It's only human nature and I am not a stranger
So baby won't you stay with me tonight
When a calls away
to break the sound
I'm faden down, I need someone
Oh to be someone
They just sinken down, and holden back
I hold the dawn and run
They don't save a child
Oh, to save a child
It's a matter of salvation from them patience up above,
So don't give up so damn easy on the one you love, one you love
Somewhere you got a brother, sister, friend, grandmother, niece or nephew
Just dying to be with you
You know there's someone out there who unconditionally, religiously, loves you
So just hold on 'cause you know it's true
And if you can take the pain
And you can withstand anything, and one day
Stand hand in hand with the truth
I said amen, I said amen
I said amen, I said amen,

Most are right in similar paths of ntreating people well... But it denies jesus christ as lord, god, and savior. If you do not have christ-you truely have nothing.

Accountability.. Stop blaming everyone else for your bad choices... And its not the white mans fault! This isn't the south and you were never a slave! Be accountable like the rest of us. You can only move forwards when you stop blaming others...

Perhaps the song is about trying to find and embrace the goodness in life in spite of its complications and evils.

The lyrics in this song is talking about what is going on in the world today. How we still have racism and we want world peace yet we are sending out troops over seas
I think i remember the 60's very well... Songs like this were everywhere and no one paid attention... Although at one point in early 70's.. All hell broke loose if they did not bring back the soldiers from vietnam... Songs like this continued... Again no one paid attention... Its always at the last moment things shake up.. Funny too how things haven't really changed. Kids see it now.. But kids dont care anymore... I think kid rock is saying .. "you have to start to care again.. Dont look away but look around... "... We had all better start to care and look around.. Violence.. War.. Hunger.. Hatred.. Indifference is everywhere.. Yet rich and famous people prosper wearing furs that were skinned off of innocent animals.. Jewels that poor babies died for in africa.. Society is arrogent and greedy... Stop and look around .. And change before "something happens again"
Omg.. U all are dumb if u don't understand what this song means. It does not or have anything to do with someone trying to tell another person they don't love them it has not to do with a solider going to war. It has everything to do with how the world is right now. I mean think about kids are going to bed hungry and they can't eat. And we have pastors that rape little kids and the goverment here does make ppl feel guilty for being white. It is about how he feels he wrote this song in like 5mins because everything he said in this song is 100% true. And u do have troops in war yelling tell my wife and childern i love thim in their last breath. Come on people wake up and listen to the news and then relisten to this song.
