Disparate Youth
Santigold (The 2 Bears Remix) Lyrics

Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather
There are obstacles in the way, and it's better not to worry about them in advance.

Another roadblock in our way
There are other barriers to be aware of and navigate around.

But if we go, we go together
If we work together, we can overcome the challenges.

Our hands are tied here if we stay
If we don't take action, we'll remain stuck and unable to make progress.

Oh, we set our dreams to carry us
We rely on our goals to fuel us and motivate us.

In the middle where we were one
Together is where we find unity and strength.

Now we push right past to find out
We're willing to take risks and go beyond our current limits.

Or either win what they have lost
We're determined to succeed and achieve our goals, even if it means taking something from others.

So let them say we won't do better
We won't let others' doubts hold us back or deter us from reaching our full potential.

Lay out the rules that we can't break
We won't let obstacles or limitations hold us back from achieving success.

They wanna sit and watch you wiggler
Some people are content to watch others struggle and fail.

Their legacy's too hard to take
Their success or family history may make them too proud to admit defeat.

In their heads and in their beds
Their doubts about us are ever-present and weigh on them, even when they're resting.

In their eyes it shows
Their body language and facial expressions betray their thoughts and feelings about us.

When the freedom breaks
When there's a shift or change in the status quo, and we're liberated from restrictions that once held us back.

And you ask and they don't know
They're unable to provide answers or guidance for us, even if they were once our authority figures.

Oh, tell me then
We're asking for honest feedback and guidance, but we're open to receiving it from anywhere.

I turn my back while the odds all stand beneath me
We're not afraid to take risks, even when the likelihood of success is low.

And they all said I was mislead
Others may doubt us and think we're making a mistake, but we're willing to take that risk to achieve our goals.

But the odds now standing with me
Even if the odds weren't in our favor, we've succeeded against them through our perseverance and hard work.

We know now we won't go
We're determined not to give up or let difficulties hold us back from achieving our goals.

Our lives worth fighting for
We believe that our goals and dreams are worth pursuing, no matter how challenging.
