[Intro]
Yeah, it's a struggle, it's a maze
Generation Z caught in the haze
Trying to find a way out, yeah
Listen up now
[Verse 1]
Born into a system that's designed to keep us down
Police patrol streets, wear the crown of a frown
Ghetto's a trap, walls closing in, no escape
Dreams shattered, minds battered, can't reshape
Street corners whisper promises of quick gain
But the pain lingers, leaves scars like a stain
They're setting up traps, but we see through the guise
Gotta rise above, gotta strategize
Education's the key, unlock the chains
Turn dreams into reality, break all the frames
Be the star quarterback, or Curry from downtown
Shooting for the top, can't let the system drown
Knowledge is power, gotta get that elevation
Change the narrative, rewrite our station
This ain't the end, we still got the fight
Generation Z, shining through the night
[Chorus]
Lost in the trap, but we hold the key
Education, the way out, for you and me
From the streets to the stars, we gon' rise free
Generation Z, it’s our destiny
Jump in the game, yeah, make your shot
Break the cycle, give it all you got
Don't be lost, find what you sought
This is our time, give it all you got
[Bridge]
Stackin’ knowledge, we build new bridges
Over the darkness, past our old litches
Goals in sight, gotta stay relentless
Break the chains, become endless
Hustle with heart, strive for greatness
Generation Z, no more shame, no facin’
System's trap, we out the cage
Turn the page, start a new age
[Verse 2]
They see us struggle, but we got resilience
Turning pain into strength, make the instance
Of a brighter future, education's armor
Armored with facts, we march with honor
They want to trap us, put fears in the hearts
But we’re warriors, ready to restart
Popping three like Steph Curry, aiming for the net
Success is the goal, gotta place your bet
No more lost, no more confusion
Just mind evolution, a certain revolution
Ghetto dreams, but now they transform
From despair to a new norm
Gotta learn more, rise above the stereotype
Education's the ladder, we climb in spite
Of all the odds, we’re breaking the mold
Generation Z, brave and bold
[Chorus]
Lost in the trap, but we hold the key
Education, the way out, for you and me
From the streets to the stars, we gon’ rise free
Generation Z, it’s our destiny
Jump in the game, yeah, make your shot
Break the cycle, give it all you got
Don’t be lost, find what you sought
This is our time, give it all you got
[Outro]
So listen up, world, we got a plan
Generation Z, taking a stand
Educate, elevate, and expand
Together we’re strong, hand in hand
From the trap to the top, we’ll ascend
This is our story, end of the trend
Ghetto's past, future’s in our span
Generation Z, the mighty clan
