Written for the short film, One Hitta Quitta, by Ya'ke Smith

lyrics

Can everybody hear me?
Is everybody listening?
There’s a war that we need to wage

Everybody’s talking
Everybody’s watching
Yet things remain the same

Oh Mama - woah is me. Dinners in the freezer and there’s no daddy around
Could the outcome be tragedy in the family?

Outrage when innocence is stolen away
Injustice around me is all I see
And the youths going bad, going bad

Oh no, is it too late
to turn the page, try and save the ones around me?
All I see is the youth going bad, going bad.

So is everybody with me?
Does everybody see what I see?
Then stand with me and stop denying

That some of our young ones
are losing hope in their outcome
their life fades from color to gray

Violence on the screen - carries to the streets and the classroom seats
Troubled are the teens.
Is anybody listening?

Outrage when innocence is stolen away
Injustice around me is all I see
And the youths going bad, going bad

Oh no, is it too late
to turn the page, try and save the ones around me?
All I see is the youth going bad…

the youths going bad.
is the youth going bad? (3x)
And is there no turning back?

Can everybody hear me?
Is everybody listening?
There’s a war that we need to wage.
