Music is a powerful force for change.That is why the music
of youth is so often censored, it speaks truths about problems that the
older generation would rather not face. This is a collection of lyrics and poetry that
seem to speak to the youth rights movement. If you any have suggestions or words of your own

Nitro (Youth Energy)
by The Offspring
Our generation sees the world
Not the same as before
We might as well just throw it all
And live like there's no tomorrow
We are the ones
Who are living under the gun every day
You might be gone before you know
So live like there's no tomorrow
Ain't gonna waste this live
The official view of the world has changed
In a whole new way
Live fast cause if you don't take it
You'll never make it
So if you understand me
And if you feel the same
Then you will know what nitro means
You'll live like there's no tomorrow
Ain't gonna waste this live
There's no tomorrow
You ain't gonna live it for me
There's no tomorrow
