The Future Didn't Amount To Much

"Stay in your lane"
 Is the best you can say
 When you told us we could reach the stars?
 Now my last pair of shoes
 Are melting in the pavement
 While billionaires fuck off to Mars
 Because the only place left with out
 Brand advertisements
 Are skies we once thought anybody could touch
 Aren't you angry at all
 The future didn't amount to much?
 Remember tv shows and flying cars?
 Robots that weren't designed to steal your art?
 And if they could, they'd take your beating hеart
 The future didn't amount to much
 We'rе what's left of the
 Hopeful young
 For a while, there's been
 Slim to none
 We are coming for what was promised
 By those who have failed us
 I would walk 30 miles to your house to hang out
 On what's now Howard Schultz boulevard
 There's some college apartments and a Lulu Lemon
 On what used to be your front yard
 And the only thing they haven't bought underneath us is
 Our empty thoughts as the rich fucking eat us
 Oh what a shame
 The future didn't amount to much?
 Remember what they told you in grade school?
 And now you're in the same place as the honor roll
 Digging yourself out of a financial hole
 The future didn't amount to much
 We're what's left of the
 Hopeful young
 For a while, there's been
 Slim to none
 We are coming for what was promised
 By those who have failed us
 We're what's left of the
 Hopeful young
 For a while, there's been
 Slim to none
 We are coming for what was promised
 By those who have failed us
 By those who have failed us
 I've been playing the Sims 3
 To live out my fantasy
 Of someday owning a home
 I just financed my PC
 With no credit history
 So I just leveraged my soul
 Thank you surveillance capital
 And thank you Tim Apple
 For getting to know me so well
 Thank you Fox News and QAnon
 You radicalized Dad and Mom
 Your children are going to hell
 ♪
 Dump your bleach in
 Coral reefs and
 Start another
 Twitter beef and
 Carbon footprints, tax relief
 TikTok makes me want to "unalive" myself
 So give us all your
 Fentanyl
 It mixes well with
 Alcohol
 And Watch my friends all
 Start to fall
 My retirement plan's the apocalypse
 We're what's left of the hopeful young
 We're what's left of the hopeful young
 We're what's left of the hopeful young
 We're what's left of the hopeful young
