Welcome to the World
Welcome to the world, I can't promise it's a good place
Welcome to the world, I can't promise it's a cool place
Welcome to the world, I can promise it's a good day
Welcome to the world (Yeah)

I could tell you stories, I tell you the truth
(Welcome to the world)
I could sugar coat it, try to make you the fool
And soon you'll see anyway, that this is life
And soon you'll see anyway, that you got to fight

Welcome to the world, I don't promise it's a good place
Welcome to the world, and I can't promise it's a cool place
Welcome to the world, now I can't promise it's a good place
Welcome to the world, yeah

I could give you roses for you to make your bed
But this bed of roses, is only in your head
'Cause every rose, has its thorn (Oh yeah)
And every ego has its wants

I don't know when innocence is lost
And I don't know when you pay the cost
Well if your back is against the wall
You've got to stand for who you are
Welcome to the world, I can't promise it's a good place
Welcome to the world, I can't promise it's a cool place
Welcome to the world, I can't promise it's a good place
Welcome to the world, yeah, yeah

People are suffering, children have no food
Keep your eyes wide open, check the golden rule
The love inside will make you cry
The fight inside will make you try, yeah

Welcome to the world, welcome to the world
