Preachers will teach you
When a man loses faith
Religion can't save you
Who knows what path he'll take
Cause now he's in a gang
And Stabs with the knife
Maybe a bit more attention
Could've bought a better life
But now there ain't no going back
And your the one to blame
You said you brought him up right
But what really did he gain?
See parents are meant help with your life
Be our role models and our teachers
But if they're our biggest fans
Why aren't they standing on the bleachers
You never noticed all the scars
And all those broken bones
You wouldn't chase the bully's away
So he became strong on his own
You never really helped
Getting drunk every night at home
While your kid was upstairs
Crying all alone
Just wanting a proper parent
To wipe away his tears
And wrap their arms around him
Chase away his fears
Why'd he turn so vicious
Well your the only explanation
Neglected your own sweet kid
Didn't even turn up to his graduation
You never shown guidance
And you left him in the cold
And when a child is misguided
He's life becomes sold
To the dark side
The worshipers of the night
Drinking, flyin high
And getting into fights
And see the scars on his back
And the holes in his chest
Tried to escape the dark
Yeah, he tried his best
But he didn't know right or wrong
Cause his parents never taught him
Can't make no saint
When all he knows is sin
