Powerful Youth Words/Music by Brian Griffin (7-19-01) I see all of you out there Future’s laid out for you There’s so brightness and strength in your eyes Anything you can do What are you gonna do with the choices That will be waiting for you What will you do with your time Powerful Youth There are those who want to take you Mold you into clones of them Take all your thoughts away from you It’s happened time and again It’s up to you to try to stop them The strength it lies with you Time to go and make your stand Powerful Youth Don’t be part of their machine Things that they said are not as they seem Promises of glory and a big paycheck- Follow blindly on their leash The shallow things that they teach Go and chase them until your life’s a wreck Then they will go on to who’s next Look out beyond the life That you live everyday See the ones struggling to stay alive Send some help their way Find a true purpose for your life Be willing to give of you Then you will up to your potential Powerful Youth I see all of you out there the future is up to you You got the power and strength in your eyes Anything you can do I pray you’ll make the right choices When they present themselves to you Don’t ever give up on your hopes and dreams Powerful Youth
