Mike Love - Youth Man lyrics

[Chorus] Youth man Youth man Take a look and see That they're filling your head with Propaganda and hypocrisy Brethren and a sistren stand up for your rights and say "I and I will never give up the fight" No oh No I and I a fire burning bright Lord Said they're coming claiming ownership of Jah Jah land Bloodletting and suppressing all our father's plans And then they come and say they're free from sea to shining sea But they know nothing at all about I liberty, yeah Said they're broadcasting their frequency to your radio Preventing and suppressing conscious vibes to flow And then they come and try to say that you need therapy When they are the ones that are living in a fantasy Said oh Lord Up town top ranking Said down in Babylon we still skanking Oh up town top ranking Said down in Babylon we still skanking Cause even though we low Our spirit is strong It's spreading all over the wickedness of a Babylon And in this new dawn It won't be long Until we're drinking milk and honey inna Mt. Zion [Chorus] Youth man Youth man Take a look and see That they're filling your head with Propaganda and hypocrisy Brethren and a sistren stand up for your rights and say "I and I will never give up the fight" No oh No I and I a fire burning bright Lord I said how many more years will you waste your precious time Fixated on possessions while television destroys your mind? How many more times will you work until your fingers bleed When everything you need in life is there for free? Oh my Lord I can hear my God Moaning through the cracks in the pavement Saying, "What will be done To clean up this mess that you've made?" It's not too late It's not too late But it will be soon if we keep consuming at this rate We need to break the trend And start again So that we can live to see the faces of our grandchildren [Chorus] Youth man Youth man Take a look and see That they're filling your head with Propaganda and hypocrisy Brethren and a sistren stand up for your rights and say "I and I will never give up the fight" No oh Youth man Youth man Take a look and see That they're filling your head with Propaganda and hypocrisy Brethren and a sistren stand up for your rights and say "I and I will never give up the fight" No oh No I and I a fire burning bright Lord I and I a fire burning Oh I and I a fire burning bright Man a burning a burning a burning Burning for Jah love Oh Lord I said behold That the seed of a perfect is planted in every man It's planted in our hearts It's planted in our hearts And I say behold For these are the times when everyone will have to overstand Jah will burn in man Oh that we've got to respect the Earth And love one another And we've got to do what Jah wants And give thanks And praise to the Father
