Sincerely, Jane

Left the city, my momma she said, "Don't come back home These kids 'round killin each other, they lost they minds, they gone They quittin' school, making babies and can barely read Some gone off to that war, Lord have mercy on them One, two, three, four, your cousins is 'round here sellin' dope While they're daddy, your uncle, is walking 'round strung out Babies with babies, and their tears keep burning While their dreams go down the drain now" (While their dreams go down the drain) Are we really living or just walking dead now? (Are we walking dead now?) Or dreaming of a hope riding the wings of angels? The way we live, the way we die What a tragedy, I'm so terrified Day dreamers, please wake up We can't sleep no more Love don't make no sense, ask your neighbor The winds have changed, it seems that they've abandoned us The truth hurts, and so does yesterday What good is love if it burns bright and explodes in flames? I thought every living thing had love, but uh Are we really living or just walking dead now? (Are we walking dead now?) Or dreaming of a hope riding the wings of angels? The way we live, the way we die What a tragedy, I'm so terrified Day dreamers, please wake up We can't sleep no more I've seen them shootin' up funerals in they Sunday clothes (yah) And spending money on spinners but won't pay college loans (yah) And all you gangers and bangers rolling dice and taking lives in a smokey dark Lord have mercy on you (yah) Teacher, teacher please reach those girls in them videos (live your life) The little girls just broken Queens, confusing bling for soul Danger, there's danger, when you take off your clothes All your dreams go down the drain, girl Are we really living or just walking dead now? Or dreaming of a hope riding the wings of angels? The way we live (the way we live) The way we die (the way we die) What a tragedy, I'm so terrified Day dreamers, please wake up We can't sleep no more (Lord, have mercy on them) (Lord, have mercy on them) (Lord, have mercy on them) (Lord, have mercy on them) (Are we really living or just walking dead now?) We live and then we die, and we never know the why So now, now we go, down underground We think that we can fly, but we never touch the sky So now, now we go, down underground (Ooh) 57821 It is now time for you to come home, my dear You've been gone long enough Thank you (Lord have mercy on them) But you must come, you must go (Lord have mercy on them) Home
