"Downtown" Lyrics [edit]
by Jordan Lara (JL) | from the album City of Hope
 

Spoken: Man, I'm ready for somethin', revolutionary, I'm ready for something that's gonna change people's live Haha I like that

Chorus:
Well in the downtown we’re screaming
Hola youth
And in the uptown we’re shouting
Hallelujah
In the downtown
we’re raising up our troops
In the uptown
We be the soldiers of the youth
REPEAT

Motown spin that record around
Berry Gordy had the whole world
Buzzing off that Motown sound
Ray Charles may have been blind
But was on his grind
Telling everybody how he had
Georgia on his mind

MLK Jr. had a dream
Way deeper than Inception
Nonviolence gave us a new
Definition of a weapon
Bob Dylan’s poetry
Had us Blowing in the Wind
Like a Rolling Stone man
Like a Rolling Stone

Sam Cooke and the Soul Stirrers
Had all the angels singing
And in the still of the night
A Change Go’n Come
Kept ringing
This generation has a voice
Hallelujah
The youth of the nations
God wants to speak through ya

Chorus x2

Billy Graham taught the world
About the Value of the Soul
He was a messenger from God
Preaching the Gospel
Jackie Robinson
Played a huge role
In the Civil Rights Movement
Bringing us all home

Come Fly with Me
Frank Sinatra belted out
I’ve Got the World on a String
You know what I’m talking about
Unforgettable Nat King Cole
Billy Holiday, Babe Ruth, and the Beatles

James Dean, Paul Newman
And John Wayne
Passed the baton
Cuz the future is our day
This generation has a voice
Hallelujah
The youth of the nations
God wants to speak through ya

Bridge:
This generation has a
Chance to make a change
This generation is the next
To rock the stage
This generation has a
Chance to make a change
This generations
Making history today

Chorus x2
Chorus & bridge x2
Chorus x2
Chorus & bridge x2
Bridge
