Our Generation
Lyricist:Leon Moore
Hope of the world is in our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us To change this present situation (Let's straighten it out)
Take caution from our elders Don't make the same mistake (Let's straighten it out) Let's fill the world with love And get rid of all the hate
Our elders taught us one thing But practice another Just look what happened To the Indian and the brother
Straighten it out Straighten it out Straighten it out
Hope of the world is in our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us To change this present situation (Let's straighten it out)
Our leaders make us fight And we don't know what for (Let's straighten it out) If they want people killed Let them fight the war
It's gotta end somewhere This killing's got to cease If no one were to fight We'd all live in peace
Our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us (Let's straighten it out)
Our generation (Let's straighten it out) Let's do just what we must And straighten it out (Straighten it out)

As long as there's a you, there's a better me It's why we're together and stronger Than they ever thought it could be A world motherless, can health care cover this? A love for all people no matter what the culture is
Our generation is makin' huge strides A self-empowering movement, that's on the rise The more the door is open, the more the youth can see A fair chance means a greater opportunity
To have a brighter future, deeper insight Work hard to be anything you want in life It's what it's all about, the longevity Educated enough to know what's ahead of me
Need to straighten it out, seek and you'll find They can cage your body but not your mind We lay it all on the line in the struggle We grew but together here's what we gotta do
Our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us (Let's straighten it out)
Our generation (Let's straighten it out) Let's do just what we must And straighten it out
Our generation, straighten it out Let's straighten it out and straighten it out Hey, we can straighten it out, yeah C'mon, yeah, our generation, let's straighten it out Hey, hey, we'll straighten it out
We'll straighten it out, straighten it out New York City, better straighten it out Atlanta, better straighten it out In Los Angeles, you better straighten it out We can straighten it out, we can straighten it out
