Born Into Motion

We didn't start the fire

But we didn't put it out

No, we made a scene with kerosene

And we spread it all around

I've got a finger on my trigger

And my sights are on the past

When you took your throne, you should have known

That it would never last

I was born into motion

Like the wind and the waves

I was born with the notion

That the world is mine to change

One's in the deep end

While the other's in the drought

That's the pain of expiration

As you watch yourself burn out

My eyes are on the future

You're too stuck in the past

This is why we study history

'Cause things round here move fast

I was born into motion

Like the earth when it quakes

I was born with the notion

That the world is mine to change

And there's one thing about me

That will always remain

It's that my misbehaving generation's

Gonna break the chain

My eyes are on the future

You're too stuck in the past

This is why we study history

'Cause things round here move fast

I was born into motion

like the day when it breaks

I was born with the notion

that the world is mine to change

I was born into motion

like the day when it breaks

I was born in the fire

of another's mistakes

And there's one thing about me

That will always remain

It's that my revelatin' generation's

gonna rearrange
