This is for those kids

Make the best of what you have Don't say you hate your parents Because they won't always be there Don't wish that you could die Because lifes too short If your friends are being stupid Let them be, you don't need people like that surrounding you Surround yourself with the people who you want to be like With the people you find yourself happiest around Be who you are Don't change yourself for anyone else Because you are amazing And don't let anyone tell you differently Remember things change And they change fast So take life as it comes And don't let the minor setbacks bring you down Overcome them And be a better person because of them And so I say This is for the kids Who never do anything wrong But still never get noticed This is for the kids Who love their parents And make sure they do everything they can to show that This is for the kids Who do everything they can for others Get nothing in return And still keep helping This is for the kids Who would die for someone They didn't even know This is for the kids Who want nothing more than to see the world be a better place Who want to change things no matter how much it takes This is for the kids Who know everything goes wrong and everything gets messed up But they still keep their heads up and they still keep going Because they know theres something out there Someone out there who wants to see them strong Wants to see them healthy and Wants to see them become better people This is for the kids Who know they're good people But don't flaunt it This is for the kids Who respect themselves enough to keep away from things that will harm them Heres to the kids Who help their friends No matter what This is for the kids The kids who show others what it takes to make it What it takes to be the most they can Take life by the horns No shortcuts No backroads Just all straight out Take it as it is
