Текст: Trick Daddy. The Children's Song.

Children hold on, to your dreams
Believe in love, let love be the light
To show the way
And love will shine on you one day
(Children hold on)

God bless the souls of those that impose a threat
Better yet, let's forget 'bout this foolishness
And though I never asked for forgiveness
If you wanna pray to Him, here's some things I might say to Him

Lord thank you for my wife, my father and mom
And God thank You for my daughter and son
You know the Devil, he's been doin' us wrong
And I love both of my kids, but they momma can't raise 'em alone
(Children hold on)

And yo, I just want a better understandin'
There's gotta be another way to handle it
And well, we got to be mature about it
We both made our mistakes and can't no one get us out it

My little girl's a little lady
And though she often act crazy, she's still my baby
And I anticipate the day that I can see
The smile on her face when she speak to Little J

Children hold on, to your dreams
Believe in love, let love be the light
To show the way
And love will shine on you one day
(America has a problem)
(Children hold on)

You see the problem with the world is
That there's way too many faces and way too many races
They done even managed to modernize slavery
They clonin' little babies, these people goin' crazy

And white America's on high alert
Black America's still starvin' and livin' in public housin'
Still eatin' off your food stamps
That's why one out of every three black boys end up in boot camp
(Children hold on)

And not to mention the ones we'll be missin'
Let's face it, e'rybody can't make it
And e'rybody wanna escape it
But if it's thug life we live, then thug life it is

But just remember, somethin' gotta give
That's why, so many die and so little live
I can't explain it, but that's how it is
And God forbid, but it is what it is

Children hold on, to your dreams
Believe in love, let love be the light
To show the way
And love will shine on you one day
(Children hold on)

The Lord have mercy on 'em
For they young and dumb, and that's why I come to pray for 'em
Though some of us are better than most of us
You can't involve the kids with our differences

And since memories are all we have
Don't you agree that all little kids deserve to laugh?
I'm, teachin' the facts about our black leaders
'Cause they be strong people, just keep readin', it gets deeper
(Children hold on)

We're all God's people
So regardless of color and race, we all is covered in grace
And you gotta be stronger than most
Therefore, we only supposed to go when we chosen

'Cause God for the thugs too
Just be sincere at heart and dawg, God'll still love you
So to all my fallen soldiers, the struggle's over
All in the name of Jehovah

Children hold on, to your dreams
Believe in love, let love be the light
To show the way
And love will shine on you one day
(Children hold on)

Believe in love, let love be the light
To show the way
And love will shine on you one day
Children hold on
