SPLISH-SPLASH
Splish-Splash, you hear the rain crash,
Cuddled up in a blanket on the couch,
Your eyes wide awake, but your body still asleep,
You stare at the ceilin' where the rain falls steep,
Its the weekend so ya lay there and think,
Life goes so fast ya don't know when ya blink,
I mean, I'm just a kid its gonna go fast,
I need to find some way to make this last,
All these kids wanna grow up so soon,
But one day there gonna wake up BOOM,
Pressin' snooze on the alarm clock,
"Shoot I'm gonna be late for work!",
Yeah that mom you yelled at isn't there anymore,
Too bad ya can't go back, ya shut that door,
Ya tanks almost empty but ya got no cash,
Splish-Splash...you hear the rain crash,

CRASH-BANG!
Another noose left to hang.
This youth that you sing,
I sang about.
Your words wash the doubt away.
I pray for the others.
Brothers and sisters that don't have,
Your wisdom at such an age.
Your words to grace the page.
At this stage of your life you should be more selfish.
Hiding away from the world like shellfish.
An ostrich.
But you're more like a lioness.
Fearless perhaps?
Need no shoulder to cry on.
Less self/more other.
You're an inspiration to this,
Another.
I see your life love,
And raise you a white dove.
Right?
