• Not The One

I'm not the one
who made the world what it is today
I'm not the one who caused the problems
started long ago
But now I deal with all the consequence
that troubles our times
I carry on and never once
have even questioned why

I'm innocent
But the weight of the world is on my shoulders
I'm innocent
But the battles started are far from over

We're not the ones
who leave the homeless in the streets at night
We're not the ones
who've kept minorities and women down
Still we grow
and then the problems they become our own
We carry on without even realizing why

We're innocent
But the weight of the world
is on our shoulders
We're innocent
But the battles left us are far from over

We're not the ones
whose pollution blackened our skies
And ruined our streams
We're not the ones
who made the nuclear bombs
That threaten our lives
We're not the ones
who let the children starve in faraway lands
We're not the ones
who made the streets unsafe to walk at night

And even if we try
and not become so overwhelmed
And if we make some contribution
to the plight we see
Still our descendents
will inherit our mistakes of today
They'll suffer just the same
as we and never wonder why
