Offspring - Not The One lyrics

I'm not the one who made the world what it is today<br>I'm not the one who caused the problems started long ago<br>But now I deal with all the consequences that troubles our times<br>I carry on and never once have even questioned why<br><br>I'm innocent<br>But the wieght of the world is on my shoulders<br>I'm innocent<br>But the battles started are far from over<br><br>We're not the ones who leave the homeless in the streets at night<br>We're not the ones who've kept minorities and women down<br>Still we grow and then the problems they become our own<br>We carr on without even realizing why<br><br>Chorus<br>We're innocent<br>But the weight of the world is on our shoulders<br>We're innocent<br>But the battles left us are far from over<br><br>We're not the ones whose pollution balcked our skies<br>And ruined the streams<br>We're not the ones who made the nuclear bombs<br>That threaten our lives<br>We're not the ones who let the children starve in faraway lands<br>We're not the ones who made the streets unsafe to walk at night<br><br>And even if we try and not become so overwhelmed<br>And if we make some contribution to the plight we see<br>Still our descendents will inherit our mistakes of today<br>They'll suffer just the same as we and never wonder why
