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

and a lot of pain.

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

So if you're McLaren Hall,
