Hope of the world is in our generation

It’s all left up to us to change this present situation

Take caution from our elders, don’t make the same mistake

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 at what happened to the indian and the brother

Straighten it out (x3)

Hope of the world is in our generation

It’s all left up to us to change this present situation

Our leaders make us fight, and we don’t know what for

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, it’s all left up to us

Our generation, let’s do just what we must

Straighten it out, gotta straighten it out

Straighten it out, , we can straighten it out

Our generation, let’s straighten it out (repeat till end)
