Tell everybody you know,
Everywhere you go, near and far,
Our precious seed is coming up,
And they have forgotten who they are,
So we've got take time to lend an ear,
And really hear what they've got to say,
Then maybe we can begin to understand,
How our children have gone so far astray.

How our children have gone so far astray.
Cause our children have forgotten
Why they should walk with their heads held high,
And some of their actions say they don't even care,
Our children's walk bring tears to the elder's eyes.
For they have stop trying to make Mamma proud,
Why they should walk with their heads held high,
And some of their actions say they don't even care,

For they have stop trying to make Mamma proud,
Wish they knew how precious they really are,
And that money don't buy everything,
It's okay if you are a daddy maybe,
Or if you mama just outright crazy
I know it takes a village to raise a child
and I will step in whenever whereever I can
Because I am dedicated to this generation

Cause this generation,
Can raise again and be great
Walking with their heads held high,
With a fire of determination in their eyes.
All it takes is investment in their wellbeing
I know cause I am a living testimony
Of what a little investment can become.
