A Youth In Society Today

It is important being a youth in society today 
Despite what the old folks mutter and say 
Don't listen to the experienced or their peers
However bring to the world such fresh ideas

Sure they are sometimes boisterous and loud
Just an expression of being alive and proud
The youth in society have holes in their clothes 
A fashion statement is what I happen to suppose 

We were all youths in society growing up fast
The innocence of it all never seemed to last  
It is important being a youth in society today 
Before jobs and mortgages get in the way
