Текст песни Livin' In A World (They Didn't Make) - Janet Jackson

Children are called the future
Of an adult world
They are born, with spirits so innocent
′Til we teach them how to hate
Add to the world's confusion
We teach our kids rules
That we don′t adhere to ourselves
Right or wrong, what examples can they take?
The people we learn from, forge the artists we become

Livin' in a world they didn't make
Livin′ in a world that′s filled with hate
Livin' in a world where grown ups break the rules (The future)
Livin′ in a world they didn't make
Payin′ for a lot of adult mistakes
How much of this madness can they take as children?

Children grow, to become our young adults
Problems of the world
They must learn how to confront
Doin' drugs, joinin′ gangs to rebel
Colors show they belong, to the social override
'Cause they're livin′ in a space, they feel out of place

Livin′ in a world they didn't make
Livin′ in a world that's filled with hate
Livin′ in a world where grown ups break the rules (The future)
Livin' in a world they didn′t make
Payin' for a lot of adult mistakes
How much of this madness can they take as children?
How much can they take?

Livin' in a world they did not make
Livin′ in a world that′s filled with hate
Livin' in a world where grown ups break the rules
(They′re just) Livin' in a world they did not make
Payin′ for a lot of adult mistakes
How much of this madness can they take as children?
How much can they take?

Children of the world
They're born so innocent
How much can they take?

Livin′ in a world we didn't make (Save the babies)
Payin' for a lot of adult mistakes (Save the babies)
How much of this madness can we take?

This just in...
At least 5 people are dead, and 30 others wounded
After a gunman opened fire on a California School Playground
And then killed himself...
Apparently the gunman, armed with an automatic rifle
Shot the kids directly in...
