Not The One lyrics

Artist  : Offspring 
Song : Not The One
 
I’m not the one who made the world what it is
today
I’m not the one who caused the problems started
long ago
But now I deal with all the consequences that
troubles our times
I carry on and never once have even questioned
why

I’m innocent
But the wieght of the world is on my shoulders
I’m innocent
But the battles started are far from over

We’re not the ones who leave the homeless in the
streets at night
We’re not the ones who’ve kept minorities and
women down
Still we grow and then the problems they become
our own
We carr on without even realizing why

Chorus
We’re innocent
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders
We’re innocent
But the battles left us are far from over

We’re not the ones whose pollution balcked our
skies
And ruined the streams
We’re not the ones who made the nuclear bombs
That threaten our lives
We’re not the ones who let the children starve in
faraway lands
We’re not the ones who made the streets unsafe to
walk at night

And even if we try and not become so overwhelmed
And if we make some contribution to the plight we
see
Still our descendents will inherit our mistakes
of today
They’ll suffer just the same as we and never
wonder why
