‘Young Man’ by Highrise is a call for the liberation of all young men misguided by today’s chaotic world. Liberate themselves from the world that the Billionaires have been exploiting for their selfish benefits. Set themselves free from the socio-political-economic-religious cages whose narratives benefit only those in power and control. Free themselves from the guidance of the greedy 10% of the population, whose only intention is to multiply their wealth while exploiting the rest. ‘Young Man’ by Highrise is a powerful antidote to the poisonous effects of capitalism on the mental, physical, and spiritual health of today’s youth.

The brilliant guitar riffs magnetize the listeners from the beginning. Highrise’s realistic lyrics hold great wisdom from the experiences he has had in life. His poignant intention in the song is to serve the young men as a mentor by sharing what he has learnt in his life. What wins the heart is Highrise sharing his hard-learned experiences so craftfully, and with beautiful rhymes through this song. “Oh, ‘Young Man,’ don’t you lose yourself trying to find your way.” His voice is like a guardian who does not teach with the strictness that comes from past traumas but with the softness of a healed human.
