Young, but not stupid

by Clifton - Aries

I may be young, but I'm not stupid
I know what's going on in this world
And so does every teenage boy and girl
Hate I still see even though America has "more pride"
Jealousy I still feel, anger I still have inside
And even though we are going through a tough time
Some more than others
Why can't people still be good to one another
I don't get it
I just don't understand
And I'd like to know if there's anyone but God that can
I really doubt it
Faith
I couldn't live without it
And I don't depend on luck
No more
'Cause when you got faith, what's luck good for?
Absolutely nothing
And if you say that's not true 
Then tell me what is
Because pride and faith is what I've got
It's just the love that I miss
