It'll Be Alright - Lyrics - Youth Asylum

One nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all It was just the other day oh boy A kid had a gun instead of havin a toy And he didn't run from his brother Cuz he thought it was game And the ending is just the same You gotta get ourselves together boy I'm lookin for love and im lookin for joy I'm lookin for peace on the streets Can you count on your brother Can we make a reality When Marvin said "What's Goin' On" he said it right So we'll keep movin on we wont give up the fight And it'll be ooh yea alright Cuz were the Young Americans Young Americans Young Americans we are the Young Americans Alright to be a Young American (yea yea, that's right, Young Americans, lets get it right this time...) It was just the other day oh boy Tell me our lives were bein destroyed And there is no hope for the ghetto Cuz the leaders don't care And they're leavin us in despair Its come to me in a better way oh boy No time to be cruel nor time to be coy We all took a pledge to the flag And we count on each other Cuz each other is all we had When Marvin said "What's Goin' On" he said it right So we'll keep pressin on to make the future bright Its gonna be alright Cuz were the Young Americans Young Americans Young Americans we are the Young Americans Alright to be a Young American Together we'd stand (oh together...) Divided we'd fall (oh we'd fall, we'd fall...) But when we stand strong (when we'll stand strong...) We fight through it all (fight through it all...) Tomorrow is new for the red white and blue (Tomorrow is new...) So let's show them why Without a scythe (?) Wake up wake up wake up Young America awake from the sleeping state Racism add fuel to the fire of hate (that's right...) Let's extinguish the flame with the waters of love Let peace spread like the wings of a dove The earth is dyin' And our lives are slowly endin' Open moves of despair Scar tissue you never mended So everybody join in the revolution Don't be caught in the problem Lets make a solution Unh clap your hands, clap your hands Young America clap your hands Young Americans, (We...) Young Americans (are the...) We are the Young Americans (Young Americans...) Alright oh so hold on Hold on just a little while longer (bout to hold on yall...) Hold on just a little while longer (one more time unh...) Hold on just a little while longer (two times two times...) Young Americans Young Americans we are the Young Americans (its gonna be...) It'll be alright hold on just a little while longer Young Americans Young Americans we are the Young Americans It'll be alright yea we're the Young Americans Young Americans Young Americans It's gonna be a bright day oh boy...
