Press play, fast forward
00:07
Nonstop, we have the beaten path before us
00:11
It was all there, in plain sight
00:15
Come on people, we have all seen the signs
00:18
And we will never get back to
00:21
To the old-school
00:24
To the old-grounds, it's all about the newfound
00:26
We are the newborn, the one the world about us
00:29
(We are the future and we're here to stay)
00:33
We've come a long way since that day
00:36
And we will never look back, at the faded silhouette
00:40
We've come a long-way since that day
00:44
And we will never look back, look back at the faded silhouette
00:47
Straight ahead on the path we have before us
01:37
Day by day, soon the change will come
01:41
Don't you know we took a big step forward
01:45
Just lead the way and we pull the trigger
01:48
Now, we will never get back to
01:51
To the old-school
01:54
To the old-grounds, it's all about the newfound
01:56
We are the newborn, the one the world about us
02:00
(We are the future and we're here to stay)
02:03
We've come a long-way since that day
02:06
And we will never look back, at the faded silhouette
02:10
We've come a long-way since that day (that day)
02:14
We've come a long-way since that day
02:21
And we will never look back, at the faded silhouette
02:25
We've come a long-way since that day
02:29
And we will never look back
02:32
Look back, at the faded silhouette
02:35
02:41

Press play, fast forwardNonstop, we have the beaten path before us
It was all there, in plain sight
Come on people, we have all seen the signs
And we will never get back to
To the old-school
To the old-grounds, it's all about the newfound
We are the newborn, the one the world about us
(We are the future and we're here to stay)
We've come a long way since that day
And we will never look back, at the faded silhouette
We've come a long-way since that day
And we will never look back, look back at the faded silhouette
Straight ahead on the path we have before us
Day by day, soon the change will come
Don't you know we took a big step forward
Just lead the way and we pull the trigger
Now, we will never get back to
To the old-school
To the old-grounds, it's all about the newfound
We are the newborn, the one the world about us
(We are the future and we're here to stay)
We've come a long-way since that day
And we will never look back, at the faded silhouette
We've come a long-way since that day (that day)
We've come a long-way since that day
And we will never look back, at the faded silhouette
We've come a long-way since that day
And we will never look back
Look back, at the faded silhouette
