It's Been Building up but now I think there's something that I gotta say
That we can't get nothing done cuz there's a generation standing in the way
And I know it's gonna sound cold but if moving forward is the goal
Then don't you think it's time you took a bow?
Because i think that you've been given more decisions than you should have been allowed

And i know that it's hard to relinquish any power
Especially one so easily obtained
But it's time for change

Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass

History's important but you gotta know that some of it is gross
and it doesn't feel you sympathize with those of us that you affect the most
Just know that it's not about your aging
It's the world that's always changing
And we think that it'd be cool if we survived
But it feels like if we left it up to you that you'd all rather have us die

And I know that it sucks to be asked to step aside
But we're hoping you can put away your pride
And give us control over our own lives

Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass

And I know that some day they'll sing this same song about us
As we also fight that march unto our graves
I just hope that by then we'll have a bit more introspection
At least enough to get out of the way

Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass

Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Can't Fight the future forever
Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All our times must one day come to pass
