Tribute to Binary Star - Open Up Your Eyes lyrics

Hook Open up - open up your eyes Become aware how juveniles are dehumanized No one's concerned - no one cares No one hears their cries One mistake, one poor decision when we take their lives Verse Let me vent and express my point of view to the extent Exposing the corruption within the law and how it hits The youth in our societies that's struggling for help Being sentenced to the penitentiary for being involved with d**h Fed talks and how to commit crimes it don't stop The media feeds these images into their mind until it locks Instead of being instrumental they'll rather throw away the key Knowing the maturity of their brain is not even fully complete Stereotype to paint us as super predators to feed the hype Labeling us to justify the reasons to give us life The social implication is they're saving the streets From adolescence manifesting the characteristics of beast Now picture this! Hook Picture the system designed to paralyze a whole culture Awareness must be raised for restorative justice and exposure There's no closure when juvenile dehumanization is ignored There's violence in the justice system be a**ured Must explore different methods for the pubic to be secured Life sentence for a juvenile adolescent another baby is abort Empathy and understanding lost in revenge and hatred Politics and the economy multiply the problems we're faced with In agreement with justice but justice can be amended Freedom and liberty can be extended plus crime can be prevented Open your eyes and reconcile these irreconcilable differences No need for condemnation and indeterminate life sentences Now picture that! Hook So many issues go unnoticed there's nobody concerned Many youths are left hopeless facing over excessive prison terms Why is this the final conclusion why unforgiving was confirmed It's equivalent to sentencing our youth to eternal hell to burn There's no understanding there's no one using discretion Blind to political investment in agreement with child neglection Moral and values isn't installed now many characters are flawed Why do we ignorantly pa** laws while many investors applaud Tell me what's the reason why our communities won't get involved A lack of unity and togetherness another problem goes unsolved It's time for a revolution a human rights movement To raise adolescent awareness objective complete improvement Break these chains!
