Dread shine your light
Dread shine your light
So a child may follow
So a child may follow
Many have been lost along the way
Many have been lost along the way
Until tonight
Until tonight
Turns into tomorrow
Turns into tomorrow
Teach them to be careful while at play
Teach them to be careful while at play
There's nothing wrong with having fun
There's nothing wrong with having fun
Don't let the system tame you
Don't let the system tame you
It's just a part of being young
It's just a part of being young
And even though they're quick to blame you
And even though they're quick to blame you
Picking on you like a plum
Picking on you like a plum
Because your dream became true
Because your dream became true
Now look what they've become
Now look what they've become
An open sight in plain view
An open sight in plain view
They've already had a run
They've already had a run
So meanwhile they try to change you
So meanwhile they try to change you
It's not over til it's done
It's not over till it's done
So please remain the same you
So please remain the same you

You might not think you know enough

Don't let that deter you

It's all apart of growing up
It's all apart of growing up
And we're all young enough to learn to
And we're all young enough to learn to
And don't you live life in a rush
And don't you live life in a rush
The past cannot be returned to
The past cannot be returned to
And when you feel like giving up
And when you feel like giving up
Remember patience is a virtue
Remember patience is a virtue
When you fall, try to get up
When you fall, try to get up
Have some guts, I'm trying to urge you
Have some guts, I'm trying to urge you
Be proud of owning up
Be proud of owning up
The truth will never hurt you
The truth will never hurt you

So when you're rising start, be wise and smart
So when you're rising start, be wise and smart
Try and make your mark

Don't you hype and floss, and drive too fast
Don't you hype and floss, and drive too fast
Cause' life's to short

Try to make good times last 'cause time flies past
Try to make good times last 'cause time flies past
And if time is money, that means I'm cast
And if time is money, that means I'm cast
But it don't cost money to joke and laugh
But it doesn't cost money to joke and laugh
So if you love somebody, hurry up and talk
So if you love somebody, hurry up and talk
Hey young world
