Youth Of The Nation Lyrics

POD

Last day of the rest of my life I wish I would have known 'cause I'd have kissed my Momma goodbye I didn't tell her that I loved her or how much I cared or thank my Pops for all the talks and all the wisdom he shared Unaware I just did what I always do Everyday the same routine before I skate off to school But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest Instead of takin' the test I took two to the chest
Call me blind but I didn't see it comin' and Everybody was runnin' but I couldn't Hear nothin except gun blast it happened so fast I didn't really know this kid though I sat by him in class May be this kid was reachin' out for love or May be for a moment he forgot who he was or May be this kid just wanted to be hugged Whatever it was I know it's because
We are we are (We are) The youth of the nation We are we are (We are) Youth of the nation
We are we are (We are) The youth of the nation We are we are (We are) Youth of the nation
Little Suzzie she was only twelve She was given the world with every chance to excel Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell She might act kind a proud but no respect for herself She finds love in all the wrong places The same situations but different faces Changed up her pace since her daddy left her Too bad he never told her she deserved much better
Johnny boy always played the fool He broke all the rules so you would think he was cool He was never really one of the guys No matter how hard he tried With the thought of suicide It's kind a hard when you ain't got no friends He put his life to an end they might remember him then You cross a line and there is no turnin' back He told the world how he felt with the sound of a gat
We are we are (We are) The youth of the nation We are we are (We are) Youth of the nation
We are we are (We are) The youth of the nation We are we are (We are) Youth of the nation
Who's to blame for the life that tragedies claim? No matter what you say it won't take away the pain That I feel inside I'm tired of all the lies Don't nobody know Why it's the blind leadin' the blind? Guess that's the way that the story goes Will it ever make sense somebody's gotta know There's gotta be more to life than this There's got to be more to everythin' I thought exists
We are we are The youth of the nation We are we are Youth of the nation We are we are (We are we are) The youth of the nation We are we are (We are we are) Youth of the nation
We are we are (We are we are) Youth of the nation (Youth of the nation) We are we are (We are we are) Youth of the nation (Youth of the nation)
We are we are (We are we are) Youth of the nation (Youth of the nation) We are we are (We are we are) Youth of the nation (Youth of the nation)
We are Youth of the nation We are Youth of the nation We are Youth of the nation We are

On March 30, 2009 I was hit by a drunk driver, along with me were my two daughters (15/11).. On june 4th, 2009, a 86 yo woman cross six lanes of traffic into the path of my son (17 yo) on his motorcycle, he had no where to go but into her car. upon impact his left leg shattered, he flew over the car, flipping in the air, landing on his back. It was a horrid scene when i arrived,called by a stranger, to only here "Do you have a son named Nick, come fast it is really bad!" A few days after Nick's accident he wrote down the title to this song, and asked me to please go listen to it. he said mom, when i was flying thru the air, i knew i was going to die. Saying to himself, he only wished he would have hugged me and would of been serious of the kiss he left on my cheek, just ten minutes ago. I have listened to this song repeatedly, crying so hard at times, i couldnt stop. In less then three months I almost lost my three children to total idots who did not think of their actions. Thank you so much POD... You have touched one mom in Virginia so deep into the heart!! Also, helped a teen realize (and every friend he has told) how important life is and how at a drop of a dime you could be gone! Thank you very much!!

So this song def brings me back. It reminds me that no matter how the world is nowadays, we are the one's who define it and make it what is. So how are you gonna change it? I love every second of it.. awesumly orchestrated! from the guitar and b**** synchronizing, to the drums laying the beat, to the strong lyrics being laid out in a linkinpark style.. this'll always be a hit!

I just found out this song is about my high school and its shooting back in the day. Not a day goes by when I walk into that bathroom where it happened and I dont think of it.
