[Verse 1] You say it like a fact You sell it like a law You keep saying tomorrow like you already own it You say "will" when you mean "might" You say "must" when you mean "want" You call it progress when it tightens control You call it vision then close the door You laugh at the questions that don't fit your line You call us slow for asking who gets left behind [Pre-Chorus 1] The choices you shut down leave people outside The doubts you laugh off are voices you cut out We need the warning not your command We need a say in where this goes [Chorus 1] False prophets You don't know tomorrow False prophets Your maybe ain't law False prophets You don't speak for us The future is not yours [Verse 2] You call it the future when we get no say You hide the choice then call it the only way You sell the ending You sell the cure Either way you tell us there's no choice anymore You draw up the plan while the people get hit You call it inevitable then you wash your hands [Pre-Chorus 2] Maybe you're wrong Maybe we're not late Maybe your tomorrow is a choice you made You call us slow You call us afraid But we still get a say in where this goes [Chorus 2] False prophets You don't know tomorrow False prophets Your maybe ain't law False prophets You don't speak for us The future is not yours [Bridge] What if you're wrong? What if we're not late? We were never asked We still get a say You built it around us but kept us locked out You talk about our lives then decide how we live We can hear the warning without calling it fate We can face tomorrow without giving you our voice [Breakdown] We were never asked We still get a say You don't speak for us No future without us You don't speak for us No future without us No future without us We still get a say No future without us We still get a say [Final Chorus] False prophets You don't know tomorrow False prophets Your maybe ain't law False prophets You don't speak for us The future is not yours No future without us The future is not yours We still get a say [Outro] No future without us No future without us We still get a say The future is not yours
