Just a regular dude
Still lives at home with his parents
He don't pay for his own food
And his future is still up in the air
He's me, and I'm him
We both work all the time
To pay off all these loans
This student owes
Loans he's payin' 
While he never graduated
This kid will find his will
To break that repeat cycle
So it's either work, don't think, take drink, repeat
Or accept; take charge of the road ahead of me
You know I'm gonna fight to live my own life
I'll climb that ladder beneath me
I'll build up from the bottom of this rock
And I'll make it all the way to the top
If you judge me at my lowest
You will be forgotten

You will be
Forgotten

We're what they call
Millenials
Led into debt, yet
We're rich in love
We're what they call
Millenials
Follow the quotient-X
To learn what was taught

We need to fall
Before we can rise
We'll hit rock bottom
Then, we'll soar to the sky

Ah, these Millenials
These damned Millenials
Never ever thinkin' they're ever better than anyone
Ah, these Millenials
Ain't Bicentennials
Times have changed, and the world just ain't the same, man
The 80's and the 90's kids, our childhoods were fuckin' lit
Not a worry in the world, nor a penny in our pockets
Yellowcard, Sum Blink 41, I know Stacy and Her Mom
Outkast outlasts both coasts, and this Rage upped the game Against both teams
But, in school, we were told to follow a road in a herd 
Turns out what's learned is useless
Fast-forward 15 years, what the f*ck are we doin'
We're not just gonna go to school, just to go to school
Take class, learn nothin' and hit the Juul
Grow addicted to that substance, and let the rich rule
Through the motions, I notion, that's the life of a fool
Society wants us to conform
To its hierarchical-ordered social norm
Fake realities in our faces to make us want more
Like we're always fallin' short, but I'll get to that later on

They don't even know what we've been through
They don't even know what we can do

We're what they call
Millenials
They haven't walked our walk
Yet they talk
We're what they call
Millenials
Livin' to love, not fight; think twice
The rights have been wrong

They got us all wrong
Millenials
We'll find our way
It will be done
Ah, these Millenials
These damned Millenials
Seein' through the server's eyes, tippin' 20% or more
Ah, these Millenials
We're just movin' along
Tryna make it work with what little we're livin' on
They say we're narcissistic, lazy, and delusional
Man, that shit is crazy, and we'll prove you wrong
Okay, so I'll admit that we have our flaws
We're not perfect; no one is at all
But we've been numbed by technology
Used to communicating behind four walls
Now I'm not saying we're free from blame
We all have a choice; we all choose a lane
But too often, we aim to please
And for that, we accept full responsibility
So we might spend what we make, but we never take a break
'Cause life's too short, and we'll never be bored
Put the mid-life crisis theory to shame
And all the other lies that have been engrained in our brains
Enough groupin' us by age or religion
Or who we voted for, what corrupt politician
Your lens is cracked as a wise band reads
Nobody likes you when you're 23

People's assumptions and judgments are a direct reflection of their insecurities
They'll put others down to make themselves feel superior

We're what they call
Millenials
Heart-Broken wealth
But we're rich in love
We're what they call
Millenials
Gen-X, they left us
To fend for ourselves
We're what they call
Millenials
They can judge us, and shame us
And try to contain us, but
We're the many
Millenials
Our strength's in numbers
What's one is for all

Now for all you greedy CEOs, media peeps, and producers of reality shows
The false advertisers so desperate to go low
This one's for you, so you'd best stay tuned
You know exactly what you're doin' to people my age
Like our lives don't matter, like it's a fuckin' game
You do whatever it takes to get the most clicks and best ratings
You set a standard of life, and if we don't reach it, you shame us
Times are a-changin'; we can trace it back to you
We're slowly crippled because of how badly you need those views
A dollar in your pocket no thought of the consequence
This is all nonsense; we've had enough of this
It ain't the real world, and you fuckin' know it
All these lies you tell and bull shit you're showin'
It's all about what you want us goin' after
You stretch the truth, and then you show it to the masses
You're tryna train our brains, 24/7
Repetition, repetition, can't avoid it forever
Sooner or later, we'll have to pull the lever
Habits, human nature, our heads will be severed
These reality shows and those for-profit schools
This impeachment? Please.  And that Fyre Festival
Where does it stop?  Where do you draw the line
You know damned well the difference between wrong and right
You don't solve problems by building a wall
Or creating a scam with a plan to justify it all
You wanna know why the world's slowly goin' to shit
Take a long, hard look in the mirror, kid
This is the world that we live in; we've got one
Who are you kiddin', sittin' there thinkin' about yourself
Help your children so that they can move on
And then they can give to their kids' generation
It ain't too late; here lies an open gate
Admit your mistakes, and make the world a better place
Stop promoting drama, especially when it's fake
The past already happened; the future isn't fate

Millenials
Meant what I said, set out to sail on it
Simple discipline, been a long time comin'
Millenials
