Be aware ! (beware) You, traders, billionaires, overfed and preachers Here comes the young guard ! Here comes the young guard Who goes down on the cobblestone Who’s taking to the streets ! The final struggle is beginning, It’s the revenge of all those who die of hunger It is the revolution that is advancing, And which will be victorious tomorrow. Be aware ! Be aware ! To the young guard ! (beware) [Verse 1, Female, Spoken-sung, 82 BPM, Fuzz guitar, Organ] Children of poverty We are rebels by force We will avenge our parents Who were exploited by bandits.

(No more war) [Instrumental, Guitar Solo, Bass, Drums, 100 BPM] (Come on!) [Verse 2, Female, Building, 84 BPM, Fuzz guitar, Organ] Because we love humanity All men are our brothers.

(good weather) [Chorus, Female, Operatic, 115 BPM, Echoes, Male distant, Layered choir] Be aware ! Be aware ! (beware) You, traders, billionaires, overfed and preachers Here comes the young guard ! Here comes the young guard Who goes down on the cobblestone Who’s taking to the streets ! The final struggle is beginning, It’s the revenge of all those who die of hunger It is the revolution that is advancing, And which will be victorious tomorrow. Be aware ! Be aware ! To the young guard ! (beware) [Instrumental, Heavy guitar riff, Bass, Drums, 95 BPM] (Yeah!) [Bridge Continued] [Verse 3, Female, Spoken-sung, 80 BPM, Deep bass, Rhodes, Close mic] Whatever your origins Give you the hand, you exploited people. If you fraternize You will be free on the earth. Let us break the capitalist yoke And build throughout in the world A social and ecological democracy, The only homeland of the oppressed. (the oppressed) [Verse 4, Female, Building, 88 BPM, Fuzz guitar, Organ] To get the people moving We will take to the streets. The youth of tomorrow Will make all the rich tremble ! We, the children of the earth By hammer and sickle And we will build on your ruins The new horizon of the free world ! (free world) [Instrumental Break, Guitar Solo, Bass, Drums, 120 BPM] (Come on!)
