Message to the Youth IV ft. Milan Parodie Lyrics

Message, message to the youth

Message, message to the youth

I don't know which way I'm going, but I know that I'ma make it somewhere, somewhere

Every time I felt all alone, built my spirit strong, I'm coming up somewhere, somewhere

Sometimes it's hard to believe, but I know somewhere I see

A place where I can be me

Every now and then, I gotta reach out to these kids

I know the feeling how it feels, when nobody understands

Feel like giving up, cuz you never got your chance

To execute your plans, every time you tried, get denied

Back to where you began, sounds familiar

Thought you had some real friends, none of them were loyal

Can't afford the latest items 'til they drop the prices

But, you feel entitled, taking what you got for granted

Now, you're mad at your parents, like they ain't trying

Plus, they always at work, so now you feel neglected

What you're mind saying, ways to get attention, get detention

So, you acting up in all your classes, wrecking havoc, grades slipping

What's love? Now, you're dating

Blinded cuz you catching feelings

Can't nobody tell you nothing, you got all the answers

It feel so official

Y'all gonna be together forever, was meant for each other

Go figure

Take your time

Everything will be alright

In due time, your light will shine

I don't know which way I'm going, but I know that I'ma make it somewhere, somewhere

Every time I felt all alone, built my spirit strong, I'm coming up somewhere, somewhere

Sometimes it's hard to believe, but I know somewhere I see

A place where I can be me

Ay, time to make it happen, y'all, rise to the occasion

Stand for something, but be respectful, know what I'm saying?

What you get, is what you give

Nine times out of ten

No need to follow trends, when comfortable in your skin

Now, think who got your back, know the line is thin

Between associates and friends, and those who pretend

Try to comprehend, when unable

To cop the latest items

Them bills due, plus who gon' put food, on the table

Y'all gotta be more humble

Cuz y'all can be without a home, same clothes, no options

Going days on an empty stomach, that'll be hectic

That's why y'all parents at work, and how y'all phone's connected

Don't get to acting up, to try to get attention

If anything, it's y'all self that y'all really hurting

As y'all start dating, strike a balance

Get y'all selves in order

If y'all gonna do what y'all wanna, just be mindful

Take your time

Everything will be alright

In due time, your light will shine

I don't know which way I'm going, but I know that I'ma make it somewhere, somewhere

Every time I felt all alone, built my spirit strong, I'm coming up somewhere, somewhere

Sometimes it's hard to believe, but I know somewhere I see

A place where I can be me

I know it's hard to keep adding, when all you're seeing is minus

There's even times, when your whole family's divided

So much confusion, gotta laugh to keep from cryin'

Tragic situations, hard to fathom why they happen

Feeling lost up in this world, could use some guidance

Don't know who to trust, so you never bother asking

Found your passion, but nobody supporting, what you find important

Here's the solution

Strengthen up your soul, focus on your goals

Keep it moving, watch for potential distractions

They'll probably say you'll never make it, cuz of the statistics

Believe beyond existence, can't nobody stop what's destined

Y'all some young kings and queens, better act like it

Don't be thinking like no peasant, better strive for greatness

Lost some people either dead, or in prison

Now, they're living through you

Remain true

This my message to the youth

A place where I can be me

A place where I can be free

A place where I can be me

A place where I can be free
