歌词
When you see me see you young world young world
It's all up to you young world young world
Always be true young world young world
That's all we can do young world that's all we can do
If you let them tell it would of never made it this far
Yea you let them tell it would of had to find a new job
I consider it a blessing thank god that I know god
And every failure that's a lesson go down or you go hard
Yea yea and I ain't had no problem making it this far
Many told me keep your head up
And stay prayed up try loving from a distance
Using it as a big sign we just taking a risk now
Let it sink in like quick sand and let it keep you at keeping on
We ain't never had the silver spoon but they ain't steer me wrong
We ain't never had fear of failure but it's in the songs
We ain't saying never but did things they say we never do
You know how I feel about time and my ****s just ahead of schedule
Just be prominent stay dominant if you said it then honor it
Keeping peace while I'm pondering I just preach it and prosper it
Set the bar and I'm climbing it don't show the way I'm finding it
Free the people that's lost in it more to it than being talented
Quality over quantity confidence over modesty
If you got it then show that shit can't hide it if it's evident
We just reaping the benefits we just teaching the have nots
And keeping up with the times that we didn't know we would be here
So what do you believe young world
I would rather fight for something than die for nothing
Who do you choose to be young world
Yea this song is just for you born in 92
Young world young world young world
It's all up to you young world young world
Always be true young world young world
Its all we can do young world
It's all we can do
It's all we can do
My name is Tony Lewis Jr
When I was 9 years old
My father got arrested for his role
In the biggest drug conspiracy
In the history of Washington d c
He will subsequently receive a sentence
Of life without the possibility of parole
That was 1989
I've been without my father for 27 years of my life
We live in a country that
That's had this system of mass incarceration
Of taking fathers away from their children
And when your father goes to prison
They tell you that your father's a bad guy
Your father may be on the news
They talk about him in the hood
They talk about him in your household
You know the love
That you felt when that person was there
You know the fun that y'all had
You know what they did for you
And in many ways what they did for you
And what they tried to do to take care of you led them to prison
In this country where our neighborhoods avoid opportunity
People try to get it the best way they know how
Men right with a divine responsibility to provide
And protect for their families and they pay the ultimate
Price sometimes which is incarceration
For every kid with an incarcerated parent
You should know your parent loves you
And they're in prison they're dreaming for you
They're wishing you're better than them
So honor them in that way be that
Worst thing you can do is follow in their footsteps
So my advice to you is again live out your dreams
Be better and don't get taken young world
