They said. They did.

"Children are our future", said the state.
But violence against children is the only thing I saw
In my school, my home and the home next door. 

In school they're hit by teachers for no fault,
At home they're hit just because of some family revolt. 
Before doing these at all
Did you forget that
"Children are the future.", said the state?

It is the plant that we seed 
But now with absolutely no care
It became a weed. 
And I know you didn't have its guilt
Because  you didn't want to be a part of this CONFLICT.

As we know Earth is round
The aggressive action that you applied on a child,
is right there, somewhere around.
And when it will find you like a hound,
Show me how you won't whine. 

You adults hover like eagles
Changing what's illegal into legal.
Unbiased yet undefined
Something to seek and hard to find-
Justice- for what's wrong and what's right.
And to get my answer 
I am here- Ready to fight!

When a child hits an adult, we call it 'Hostility';
When an adult does the same, you call it 'Discipline'.
This is how you build a future so clean,
And ours as dirty as a garbage bin.
No one thinks of our rights.
And so we are here to care for our lives and 
Ready to fight!
