Turn the Tide Ian Thomas

[Verse 1]
She's in her darkest hour, it's a domestic fight
She's gazing down the tower, she wants to take a flight
There's something with his head cause school is just too tough
He wants to cut his thread, his way to score enough
They're on a path of trouble, they're teamed up with despair
Their mind is one big rubble, their life's a ni-ightmare
We gotta see the truth, it's tough to be alive
21st century youth

[Chorus]
We gotta turn the tide
Their life goes down the drain
Turn the tide
They lead a life of shame
We have to turn the tide
We've gotta see the truth
So turn the tide
It's tough to be alive
Turn the tide

[Verse 2]
He's bullied 'bout his skin, nobody seems to see his skills
His race is like a sin, so he grabs for the pills
She thinks her face is wrong, believes her boobs are small
The scorn keeps coming strong, she's got a real death call
They're so afraid to tell, they live in misery
Their hope is up for sale, it's a zero destiny
We gotta see the truth, it's strange to be alive
This puzzled online youth
