Music & lyrics: john popper



As i

Was taught to lead

I was fed well

On what had come before

Everyone

Who had ever lived

Left a lesson

Regarding what's in store



They

Were just like you and me

Guessing their asses off

Oh yes, they tried to guess well



It's our turn now

I hope we're forgiven

Chalk it up to knowledge and change

And life itself



And as i

Shall learn to follow

I'll feed the leaders

With everything i can

They'll

Bring revolutions

That try as i may

I just won't understand



They

Will be just like you and me

Pretending they're not guessing

As if we couldn't tell



It'll be their turn then

I hope we can forgive them

Chalk it up to knowledge and change

And life itself



It seems a cycle that we all seem to share

The passing from hand to hand of our pride and despair

Both parent and child cry apathy but everybody cares

And then we vanish in thin air

And only time is there

Time and a legacy...



History holds questions for everyone

A story that's only just begun

Blind passed the goddamn horizon

Sees more than father less than son

Life and death merely pretending

We're part of the infinite ending



We

Are gonna teach and learn

We're gonna get fed well

And then we shall feed

We

We are ancient

We are brand spanking new



We shall follow and lead



Cause we



Are simply you and me

In proving our traditions

On the brink of heaven and hell



We each get a turn

And then we're forgiven

And we call it knowledge and change

And life itself

And we call it knowledge and change

And life itself

And we call it knowledge and change



And life...
