K.O.A Lyrics by JUJ

JUJ, It’s U

2019

[Intro]
That's why I am like I am
It might be hard to understand this, and I really don't care if you do or you don't
It's how you were brought up in this world, that's what counts

[Verse 1]
Yeah, we are the sound of the future
The suburbs, the projects, the neighborhoods
Up to you and me, now it's our turn
Yeah we tryin' to make things better than they were

[Pre-Chorus]
Haven't you heard
That we can learn from bridges they've burned? Yeah
Yeah, we are the sound of the future
We don't really care what they think of us

[Chorus]
Young like the night
Under the city lights
We're the kids of America
We rock A$AP
Like Rocky, we're fightin' back
We're the kids of America
We're here to stay (We're here to stay)
Different but all the same
Land of the free
We won't give up the dream
We're the kids of America

[Interlude]
Dressed up in his slacks and his white shirt
I can't say my upbringing isn't, isn't good because I was taught by so many better

[Verse 2]
Yeah, we are the brains of the future
Technically, technology is our cure
Turn society like a U-turn
Yeah, we're tryin' to make things better than they were

[Pre-Chorus]
Haven't you heard
That we can learn from bridges they've burned? Yeah
Yeah, we are the brains of the future
We don't really care what they think of us

[Chorus]
Young like the night
Under the city lights
We're the kids of America
We rock A$AP
Like Rocky, we're fightin' back
We're the kids of America
We're here to stay (We're here to stay)
Different but all the same
Land of the free
We won't give up the dream
We're the kids of America

[Bridge]
Every color, every race
Every right to be in this place
East to the West, it's freedom we chase
We're the kids of America
Every color, every race
Every right to be in this place
East to the West, it's freedom we chase
The future's in our hands for all of us

[Chorus]
Young like the night
Under the city lights
We're the kids of America
We rock A$AP
Like Rocky, we're fightin' back
We're the kids of America
We're here to stay (We're here to stay)
Different but all the same
Land of the free
We won't give up the dream
We're the kids of America

[Outro]
That's why I am like I am
It might be hard to understand this, and I really don't care if you do or you don't
It's how you were brought up in this world, that's what counts
