Have You Seen Me

Have you seen me
I just might be your little baby?
Have you seen me
Im lookin at you with grown up eyes?
Every milk carton and highway billboard sign says maybe.
Have you seen me or have you only seen my disguise?
I had a fight with mama and she said she couldnt stand me.
I had a fight with papa and he really likes to swing his fist.
Im sick and tired of all those stupid rules they hand me.
They try to make me feel
I have no right to exist.
Have you seen me, well
Ive seen you.
Ive seen what the grown ups do.
Ive seen
I can do that too.
Have you seen me?
Well Im older now than
I was the day
I vanished.
You might not even know me if you saw me passin by.
Others take your place in the dark world of the banished.
On vicious streets where no one hears me cry.
Well you cant run, you cant hide turn your face, walk inside.
Cant close your doors, because
Im yours.
Have you seen me?
Well Im fighting in
Nicaragua,
Im fighting in
Afghanistan.
In Israel
I wear a gun, in
Palestine a rock is in my hand.
In Africa you see me starve, in
America they just throw me away.
But Im making history that other kids will read about some day
Have you seen me, well
Ive seen you.
Ive seen what the grown ups do.
Ive seen
I can do that too.
Have you seen me?
Have you seen me?
Have you seen me?
Have you seen me?
