The voices of the future 
 Heard the voices of the past 
 The voices that were saying 
 That it would never last 
 They said that it was evil 
 Just a passing fad 
 The music of the devil 
 It surely must be bad 
  
 Aaah..but rock 'n roll lives on and on 
 And hip-hop, funk, and soul 
 And the voices of the future 
 Help to keep the story told 
 That the barrio keeps getting smaller 
 Growing up keeps getting harder 
 And all we've ever tried to say 
 Is help us find our way< BR>A way...a way...a way away... 
 Whoo
