Youth Gone Wild
Rebel Hearts: Embracing the Wild Spirit of Youth
Lyrics
Since I was born they couldn't hold me down
Expresses a sense of rebellion and resistance from an early age.
Another misfit kid, another burned-out town
Describes the singer as an outsider in a town that lacks vitality or enthusiasm.
I never played by the rules, I never really cared
Rejects conformity and apathy towards societal norms.
My nasty reputation takes me everywhere
Acknowledges a bad reputation that has spread widely.
I look and see it's not only me
Observation that others share similar struggles and challenges.
So many others have stood where I stand
Highlights a collective experience of facing adversity.
We are the young, so raise your hands
Encourages the young generation to unite and assert themselves.

Implies a constant judgment and scrutiny of the youth.

Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be
Describes pressure from authority figures to conform.
Getcha a 3-piece wall street smile and son you'll look just like me
Encourages adopting a superficial, conformist image for success.

Warns about the deceptive allure of material success.
