Don't Take That Attitude To Your Grave

You say what's mine is mine
And what's yours is mine too
Now you've got more than you can spend
But all of the money in the whole wide world
Is not gonna help you in the end

Now while there's still time to be saved
Don't take that attitude to your grave
It might be too late for you I'm afraid
So don't take that attitude to your grave
Don't you take it there

I hear helicopters over my house everyday
Shining their lights and flying low
Treat a child like a criminal from the day he is born
And you're gonna reap just what you sew

Now while there's still time to be saved
Don't take that attitude to your grave
Might be too late for you I'm afraid
Now don't take that attitude to your grave
Don't you take it there

So you can move your court case way across town
You can move it across the whole wide globe
But it ain't gonna help your court case up in the sky
When you go to put on your white robe

Now while there's still time to be saved
Don't take that attitude to your grave
Might be too late for you I'm afraid
Don't you, they don't want it.
Don't you take it there.

And you dare the children stay off of drugs
I dare to stop letting them in
And how dare you point your finger at a gang out on the street
While its you who is committing the sin

Now while there's still time to be saved
Don't take that attitude to your grave
Might be too late for you I'm afraid
Don't take that attitude to your grave
Don't you take it there
They don't it want it there
You know your mother taught you better
Don't take that attitude to your grave
