Only The Young is a song by pop singer Taylor Swift that was released on January 31, 2020 alongside her Netflix documentary titled "Taylor Swift: Miss Americana".
Only The Young is a political anthem that encourages teenagers and young adult to use their voices in what they believe in.
Taylor can also be heard making a reference to Donald Trump and 2016 U.S. election on the first verse with the lyrics:
You did all that you could do
The game was rigged, the ref got tricked
The wrong ones think they’re right
You were outnumbered this time
Before she later calls out the controversial president as the "big bad man" on the second verse singing:
And the big bad man and his big bad clan
Their hands are stained with red
Oh, how quickly they forget
Then Swift continues on the chorus while being accompanied by a kids choir as she sings:
Only one thing can save us
Only the young (Only the young; Don't say you're too tired to fight)
Only the young (Only the young; It's just a matter of time)
Only the young (Only the young; Up there's the finish line)
Only the young
Can run
I love that Taylor Swift is getting political in her music especially with this song "Only The Young". The message behind this track is so amazing and I think that young people, like myself, should use their voices to really fight for what's right.
