1st verse:

Yo, let's save the children
'Cause they're too young to be dying
And in the city mothers are crying
For kids that are taken away so young
And it's no fun to see the death of another one
Another kid's life ended
Another funeral for a young child I attended
So let's stop the killing, the premature deaths
And the number of graves being filled in
Back in the days outside we could play
But you gotta keep the kids indoors nowadays
'Cause it ain't safe to go play in a park
Leave 'em unattended and that's when the killing start
Kids dying in gun smoke
And in the city we live the people gotta have some hope
So in the 90's we gotta start building
Yo,let's save the children


2nd verse:

Little kids being sodomized
And in the city this year you're gonna hear a lot of cries
Of young babies that are born addicted
A girl dies from the wounds inflicted
By her stepfather but no one heard her holla
And if they did, the cowards didn't want to bother
Another baby abandoned,just left on the street
'Cause the mother couldn't stand him
My friend's baby was stolen
And he would give anything in the world just to hold him
The baby was sold like a slave from the past
'Cause people do anything to make a little cash
I see poor kids going hungry
'Cause their crackhead mom buys drugs with the money
And many little children are homeless
You see 'em roaming the streets looking like skin and bones
It's a sad sight to see in your neighborhood
Young girls sell their bodies 'cause the pay is good
How many times have you seen on the news
A child is killed and the cops don't have a clue
One day it could be your own
When you worry about something,your child is unknown
So people,let's get it together
But you gotta be willing to help save the children
