Children of the Future

[Verse 1]
If you're reading this
Then it means we failed
But all hope's not lost
It is not, it is not
If these words ring true
My mulatto brood
It has been foretold
It is yours, it is yours

[Chorus]
Yes, the children are the future
Yes, the children are
They're the next phase
They're the next stage
They're the next grade
They're the next wave
Time is on their side

[Verse 2]
This is how it grows
It will ebb and flow
So don't lose your knack
Or your heart, or your heart
They will silence you
Try to punish you
You will find a way
In the stars, in the stars

[Chorus]
Yes, the children are the future
Yes, the children are
They're the next phase
They're the next stage
They're the next grade
They're the next wave
Time is on their side

[Bridge]
Be all that you can be
Be all we never were
Succeed where we failed
And make them eat it

[Outro]
If you're reading this
Then it means we failed
But all hope's not lost
We will not be the last
We will not
