Mom's Broke

Verse I.
   I'm really afraid
   My mom's looking faded
   This broken family is jaded
   For awhile now no one's got paid
   Going broke feels like raids
   Everyone is gone but I wish they would of stayed

Chorus.
   My mom's going broke
   this really isn't a joke
   We can't even afford a can of coke
   My tears run down onto my shirt and it's soaked

Verse II.
   I don't want to live on the streets
   All these people are looking beat
   Time has already picked her date
   Reality has chosen my fate
   I don't want to walk through a shelters gate
   The government don't bring nothing but hate
   To get a job is just to late
   The world will judge and give a poor rate
   My family needs a clean slate
