Track 02: Youth of a Nation
Chorus (Denise)
This is the time for us,
That's why were stepping up,
With much determination
Because were the youth of a nation,
Verse 1(Derrick)
Step up, step up don't get caught sitting,
Time to wake up don't get caught slipping,
We got a message for you like we writing a letter,
So join Gods vision the sooner the better,
Its time for the young to fight for the cause,
We looking for the kingdom and not a round of applause,
So please listen up and don't despise our youth,
You don't have to be ancient to live for the truth,
Chorus (Denise)
This is the time for us,
That's why were stepping up,
With much determination
Because were the youth of a nation, X2
Verse 2(Derrick)
Yes its our time so pass the baton,
We need to man up and I ain't talking about brawn,
Youth you need to turn concentration on,
I know it sounds crazy but salvation's not a con,
You don't need to listen to the lies of this world,
Don't be entranced by that pretty young girl,
Looks good from a distance, then she'll trap ya,
Satin is strong and he's coming right at ya,
He don't play games disappointing results,
So leave that child behind and become an adult,
You may feel helpless people may ignore ya,
But Jesus was young when he read from the Torah,
Destruction you facing is straight annihilation,
So change yo situation spiritual liberation,
You are to Christ, its true to salvation,
Yes this is a call to the youth of a nation.
Chorus (Denise)
This is the time for us,
That's why were stepping up,
With much determination
Because were the youth of a nation, X2
Verse 3 (Jonathan)
They tell me that they too young to serve my Jesus,
They only 21 they wanna do what pleases,
And join life just like a recess,
Whatever they find they do and is pleasing,
And they too young to wear a shirt and tie,
Come to church on Sunday that's pie in the sky,
I gotta live my life while i still got it,
I started to preach but they told me to stop it,
Stop what? stop the conviction,
Cause I called your fairy tale a fiction,
Cause somehow you think there's no price for your sinning,
But when that bill drops then you'll be tripping,
I say your too young to raise a baby,
Alone cause you know daddy ain't staying,
Incurable diseases it's kinda scary,
Cause even while your young, yeah that's reality,
Chorus (Denise)
This is the time for us,
That's why were stepping up,
With much determination
Because were the youth of a nation, X2
Verse 4 (Marcus)
Young like Timothy, strong like Samson,
Tall like Goliath and oh yeah they handsome,
But they ain't dancing and they don't curse either,
And they ain't sleeping around like Justin Beiber,
Hay Imma be open,
Taylor Swift don't curse in her songs but her words will kill yo emotions,
God chose David, and God chose Josiah,
The youth is rising up I respect Nehemiah,
You say I'm too young to preach, come on,
I say your too old to live with your mom,
What you wondering, all yo moneys on drugs
and in the clubs, but ours is in the offering,
Marriage ain't for the youth?
Should I sleep around at age 45 like you,
Hay I tell the truth,
If you sleep around your a horror,
Home girl that is not cute,
This is the time for us,
That's why were stepping up,
With much determination
Because were the youth of a nation,
