From the start we were branded
A generation to be stranded to fix a world we didn't mess up
You prod us on though the wheel is broken
The beast will bite if you keep on poking
Your iron grip is about to slip
You got us singing
We won't break down
We will break through
You say jump, we say how high
You say leave, we say bye bye
We're bred to please, until we see
It was the boomers that gave us a name
Saying Peter Pan kids take the blame
While they were the rebels, who wrote the rules
You got us singing
We won't break down
We will break through
You complain and blame it all on the one percent
(We have the power to make this the best generation of mankind)
But you look around the world and the past, you are it
(Or make it the lost in the history of the world)
Born with disposable silver spoons
In a plastic age that's ending soon
In a world that's running out of room
And you blame everyone but you
We won't break down
We will break through
We won't break down
We will break through
