ICT Adult-Youth Partnerships

THE RIGHT TO QUESTION MY RIGHTS
 
Adults don't know everything
Youth don't know nothing
Ask a question or two bet we both know something
Adults know they want to help
And youth know they mean well
Ask a question or two
and our answers will tell
 
Tell of youth afraid searchin for the right reasons
Making detours at their parents perspective
Trying hard to please them
Now really is that pleasing?

Or is it our true selves we're appeasing
