Verse 1
Dm
Kids from the system,
F
the same kids from the system
Dm
F
That you said wouldn't listen, taught us
Dm
But the system only pre
Dm
You've all seen us do
Dm
Go out in the raw color stars
Dm
F
I used to run every chance I would get
F
a test subject for medication
Dm
F
And settled for subpar HEC education
Dm
F
A misfit, another kid trapped
in the system
Dm
F
Destined to be a product, another statistic
Dm
I know I wasn't cool
F
Dm
When the big ugly group home van
F
showed up to pick me up from school
Dm
F
Everybody knew it and I couldn't hide it
Dm
My skin was my prison,
F
I just wanted to climb inside it
Dm
F
I'm a grown kid, and I'm not ashamed
Dm
F
This is real life, baby, this is not a game
Dm
F
Dm
We children of the system
Dm
F
I'm a grown kid, and I'm not ashamed
Dm
F
This is real life, baby, this is not a game
Dm
We children of the system
F
Dm
and a lot of pain
F
Dm
Why you think I went to the army?
F
19 years old with no life skills
Dm
The only place around that would
F
teach me to fight, kill,
Dm
and take orders like a drone
F
Dm
Until I reinvented myself
Dm
C
F
And I don't really know what it is lately
Dm
But I still think about the
F
email found out I'm in the navy
Dm
F
And we were roommates as babies
Dm
F
Sometimes I think back and it's crazy
Dm
They bred me to be lazy,
F
short -tempered, and crazy
Dm
Enough
F
Dm
If you enrage me, enrage me,
Dm
I'm a group home kid
Dm
F
This is real life, this is not a game.
Dm
F
Dm
We are children of the system
F
Dm

and a lot of pain.

C
Rachel Madden took kids in
F
that weren't even hers.
Dm
While state funded group homes
Dm
And do you ever think
F
she'll get the respect she deserves?
Dm
Nah, but they tell me to have
F
more respect for the herd
Dm
When you a ward of the court,
F
nothing ever makes sense
Dm
And you get complacent
F
sitting around in placement
Dm
Even the young girls
Dm
Doing things no girl should
F
ever have to do to fit in
C
F
We are a nation of kids discarded
Dm
In Sil mar, where the heart
F
of the kids are hardest
Dm
Temporary group homes
F
and short -term hospitals
Dm
Medication side effects
F
and emotional obstacles
Dm
Yeah, I'm the monster
through abuse and neglect
Dm
F
Just so you can get a check
Dm
So I respect those who went through
Dm
F
Cause I'm a group home kid just like you
Dm
I'm a group home kid and
Dm
F
We children of the system in a lot of pain
Dm
We are children of the system
Dm
I'm a group home kid
Dm
We are children of the system
Dm
I'm a group home kid and
F
Dm
I'm not ashamed
Dm
F
Dm
To anybody who was ever
F
Dm
in a group home

So if you're McLaren Hall,
