Face To Face - Im Trying

Four-year-old at play
Shot and killed today
Never even had a chance
Seventeen and high
Threw away his life
Has a gun to feel like hes a man
Cant have it any other way

Laying in the street
Asking for a drink
Doesnt have a place to live
Pregnant at thirteen Still can hear the screams
Something that she never will forget
Cant have it any other way

Im trying to open my mind

So you can keep your faith
And Ill just walk away
Theres no reason for me to stay

Im trying to open my mind
Im trying to make my mind
