the kids on the net now

the kids on the net now
even though he's dead and gone
it's weird to see his face around
even if you can't get 'em on the phone
his folks live nearby
she tried to get me there
i stayed away for awhile
emotions i can't bear
the dudes tunes are on my pc
and ive got him a few cds
we'll see how people act
wonder if things'll just be peachy
i was warned against making copies
they don't want a profit
neither do i really it's not mine
just trying to mentally drop it
i just have to do this one thing
get it off my chest
put together this album
and then finally lay him to rest
i'll move on and strive forward
i'll try to be the best i can
that's how that kid always was
taught me how to be a man
the kid was suave and always had suits
wore black shoes that were shiny
kid always kept his hair combed
and messes always tidy
the kid would look out for other people
make sure they never saw his inner evils
i appreciate the things he did
inside he was just a kid
but there's so many things that can be said
now he's ashes gone and dead
you could blame the parents or the friends
but in the end it was a thought in his own head
thats what got him the overdose
and there's not much any of us could do
i was a cripple emotionally
all i had was a good view
but now we stand looking back
and the kid did alot of great stuff
i've been moving forward and working
making sure that he'd think it's enough
