Disparate Youth Lyrics

(Oh)
Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather (oh)
Another roadblock in our way (ohh-oh)
But if we go, we go together (oh)
Our hands are tied here if we stay (ohh-oh)

Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
And if they don't fly we'll run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost

Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for (oh)

So let them say we can't do better (oh)
Lay out the rules that we can't break (ohh-oh)
They want to sit and watch it wither (oh)
Their legacy's too hard to take (ohh-oh)

Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
And if they don't fly we'll run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost

Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for

In their heads, hedging their bets
In their eyes it shows
When the beacon breaks well then
You ask and they don't know
Oh tell me that
I turn my back well the odds all stand beneath me
And they all said I was mislead
The odds all stand beneath me

Oh ah, oh ah
They're frozen to the core
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
And if they don't fly we will run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost

Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for

(Oh, oh)

We hear that rumble don't hear what you say
Now here we come can't throw nothing in our way
We hear that rumble don't hear what you say
Now here we come can't throw nothing in our way, ay-yo

(Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Ay-yo
Ay-yo (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Ay-yo
