The Future

This is not the future we were promisedEsto no es el futuro que nos prometieron

This is not the future we were counting onEsto no es el futuro en el que contábamos

This is not the world every boy and every girl envisionedEste no es el mundo que cada niño y niña imaginaba

From the time we learned we all were growing upDesde que aprendimos que todos estábamos creciendo

Modern life is hardLa vida moderna es difícil

Without the flying carSin el auto volador

This is not the future we were promisedEsto no es el futuro que nos prometieron

This is not the picture we were paintingEsto no es la imagen que estábamos pintando

This is not the model we once sawEsto no es el modelo que alguna vez vimos

There are no instructions now for livingYa no hay instrucciones para vivir

There are no more plans for us to drawYa no hay más planes para nosotros dibujar

When everything you love to doCuando todo lo que amas hacer

Turns out to be hurting youResulta lastimarte

This is not the future we were promisedEsto no es el futuro que nos prometieron

Tired of the good old daysCansados de los buenos viejos tiempos

So through the crystal ball we gazeAsí que a través de la bola de cristal miramos

To the future (oh, oh)Hacia el futuro (oh, oh)

And there must be a better wayY debe haber una mejor manera

To make a change we'll start todayDe hacer un cambio que comenzaremos hoy

For the future (oh, oh)Por el futuro (oh, oh)

Modern life is much to hardLa vida moderna es muy difícil

With no jet packs or flying carsSin mochilas a reacción o autos voladores

This is not the future we were promisedEsto no es el futuro que nos prometieron

This is not the future we were promisedEsto no es el futuro que nos prometieron

This is not the future we were promisedEsto no es el futuro que nos prometieron

This is not the future we wereEsto no es el futuro que nos
