Young Ones Lyrics:
God gave you a gift, I’m sure you, don’t believe right now But it be something, you can see right now Maybe someone you can be right now It’s really crazy, but believe right now And it could happen, once you landed in earth Your mom cried, when she was giving birth And if you didn’t cry, man you- stilled lived Why you live like your unaware that your life is a gift I’m telling you, be hind corporations With the hate, and the lives that they taking And insecurities the, lies they creating Understand, that our God gave us language Understand their evil, is stemmed from their greed Taking your money that, they do not need I hope you maintain your, heart of gold The world’s influence can, make you grow cold This Ones, for the young ones Hope you understood This ones, for the young ones Hope you see it’s all good I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I’m telling you, even though you don’t believe me Peer pressure, it can really be deceiving Cause your mind, can alter such ways Can’t tell, Monday from Sunday Sunday from Monday, all of it’s mundane All- of its the same, as common as sun raise Cause your friends might say, it could lift your mood But it could also, take your gift from you I almost lost my life last night And I ain’t exaggerating, when I write that rhyme Cause of the people I, was a round last night But god in myself, I found that night And with him I created, a whole new path With more obstacles, I moved through that And I hope you can, do the same And take the motivation, from your pain This Ones, for the young ones Hope you understood This ones, for the young ones Hope you see it’s all good I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I’m barely 18, and I’m still that age It’s crazy cause I, barely feel that age But motivation, I feel that rage Over to the point where, I reveal my age And show that, just because your older And have a few more, burdens on your shoulder You don’t have to have to, let go- now You don’t gotta stop, setting goals now You don’t gotta stop, acting a fool And having fun, but be true to you And even if you’re angry, at your mom or your dad Realize they do the, best they can To try raise you, to be your dreaming Whether at home or, in the clouds I stay screaming Stay young, and accomplish your goals Keep an open heart, and you will never grow old This Ones, for the young ones Hope you understood This ones, for the young ones Hope you see it’s all good I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours I hope you understand, that the world is yours |
