tell me mama about the war

what did the pirates have in store

how are the revolutionaries gonna hurt me

when i can’t even be free

 

tell me mama about the bad guys

and how pollution hurts your eyes

tell me please, what can i do

so i don’t end up like you

 

i wanna live for right now, and not worry about yesterday

i wanna live in happiness, and i always want to say

that i am free and i am me

 

tell me mama about depression

tell me also of your confession

of never being what you want to be

of never wanting me to make you see

 

tell me mama of fear and strife

tell me, please, of your whole life

let me be the one to say what i feel

let me decide for myself what’s real
