All that I know in my life, I have learned on the street No magic carpet, no genie, no shoes my feet Will I wake up from this nightmare? A fear that chills me to the bone Though I may one of many I feel so all alone
We are the children of the night We won't go down without a Our voice is strong, our future's bright thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children of the night
Left by my father with only this scar on my face Told by my mother that, \"No, you just a mistake\" I have tasted my own hunger Sold my body survive Some have paid to scratch the surface But they can't touch what's inside
We are the children of the night We won't go down without a fight Our is strong, our future's bright And thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children of the night
I long for something better Than this life I know too well Lord, I know I'm for heaven Cause I've done my time in hell
We are the children of the night We won't go down without a fight Our voice is strong, our future's bright And thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children the night
