When we were younger we used to sit on my porch And talk smack about girls and professional sports There’s a lot of things I wanted to say but never got a chance to find a way Take a good look at all of our high schools This is the first reason that I wanna write you It must be tough when society is messed up Gotta save money, please don't take it out on us Pre-chorus: Do they even know? Do they even know? Chorus: If I was brave I’d write a letter to the president And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament But for now I won’t say nothing From all the kids who would stand in my residence Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence but for now I won’t say nothing Now that we’re older a brand new story unfolds About God and the laws that we’ve always been told There’s a lot of things I wanted to say but never got a chance to find a way
