[Damian Marley - Verse 1]
14
Now mi love fi see the schoolas dem a graduate

17
And them bound fi great
18
Because dem nah pick up no matic and a perpetrate
19
And then I love the energies whe dem a generate
20
My Generation it so special it will make a change
21
Because the elders sew the seed and it a germinate
22
So anytime dem see the progress dem a celebrate
23
Because we rising up despite of the economy
24
And then a we a star the show like the astronomy
25
And how we keep on breaking through is an anomaly
26
Because we keep remaining true without apology
27
The mission ha to carry through and finish properly

Say Zambia to Honolulu back to Tripoli

And everybody want a future living happily
31
[Chorus - Joss Stone & singers]
32
[Nas - Verse 2]
33
Can you blame my generation, subjected gentrification,
34
Depicting their frustrations over ill instrumentation
35
Cause music is the way to convey to you what I'm facing,
36
Placing my life in front of your eyes for your observation
37
Now if you can't relate then maybe you are too complacent,
38
Athletes today are scared to make Muhammad Ali statements
39
Whats up with your motto?
40
Will you lead? Will you follow?
41
Improve your values
42
Education is real power
43
I reach em like Bono
44
So get rid of your self sorrow
45
Add some bravado
46
Get wealthy likes Wells Fargo
47
Its truth, that I am you
48
And I am proof
49
Surviving through
50
We do what we gotta do
51
Yo we could break the cycle let nobody lie to you
52
Then maybe put our sons and our daughters in private school
53
Cause there's a mission we gotta finish before we leave
54
This generation is destined to do historic deeds.
55
[Chorus - Joss Stone & singers]
56
[Verse 2 - Lil wayne]
57
uhh if you weather that storm
58
Then that rain bring sun
59
Been a long time comin
60
I know change gone come
61
Man I gotta keep it movin to the beat of my drum
62
Last night I set the future at the feet of my son
63
But they thinkin that my generation gotta die young
64
If we all come together then they cant divide one
65
Don't worry bout it just be about it
66
Got a message from god heaven too crowded
67
But I say hey young world you've never looked betta
68
And I heard change started with man in the mirror ughh
69
This generation
70
I'mma represent
71
A generation led by a black president
72
Now hows that for change
73
Who knew that could change
74
I don't even look at the flag the same hey ughhh
75
So when you finish readin revelations
76
Thank god for my generation
77
[Chorus - Joss Stone & singers]
