Next Generation
When I was a younger man
I used to make so many plans
Screaming ball of confusion
One thing I knew for sure
Please pay attention
Take to the streets for your rights
Who knows what things will be like
Two generations from now
I won't be here but I'll predict
You'll feel a certain urgency
It's not a panic it's a reaction
A call to action, we call it out
They burned our history books
And put trackable knowledge in our hands
They stream a fountain of lies
With alarming frequency
Some things don't change too terribly much
Don't let them fuck this whole world up
Divide and conquer all
How much do we need to be truly free?
When all parts are breaking
When all parts are breaking
Come and see hypocrisy 20/20 now
Come and see hypocrisy
Parts are breaking now
Parts are breaking now
World is breaking down
(Calm down, calm down, calm down)
All this breaking down
(Calm down, calm down, calm down)
When I'm hoarse and deaf and feeble
Nobody's going to listen to me
Time to take one last stand
Try to make you understand
Life isn't a joke, it's so much more
It's all we get, there's nothing else
But what gets left for the next generation
The next generation
Next generation
Next generation
Next generation
