The youth is struggling

For a voice

A mega-phone world wide message

"We are here, we exist, looking for some acceptance"

 

The words dangling empty promises on posters in empty hallways read

"Be different, stand out, we love that you're unique!"

But it's bullshit, because we see them always trying to conform us

Preparing us for mediocracy

Without feeling the need to inform us

That what this world needs are leaders, thinkers, do-ers,

We need kings, queens, innovaters, rulers

Not puppets brainwashed by outdated philosophies

We're on the brink of a revolution

That can't be stopped by any other resolution 

Other than a chance to be heard

And why not listen to the future?

 

The world will be in our hand's soon

We are butterflies breaking out cocoons

We're presidents, CEO's, high acheivers,

Artist, teachers, and above all beleivers

That change starts with us

 

So everyone listen up

The youth is here with a message

"We are here, we exist, and we damand acceptance"
