Every generation that came before
The boys would have to go and fight in a war
Their mothers wondering what they were fighting for
And praying they'd make it
My grandma was born in 1924
Oldest of 13
Near outlasted them all
I think of all throughout her life that she saw
And I say we make it

[Chorus]
We’re all gonna make it
No don’t you mistake it
This soul you can't take it
This role you can’t fake it
We’re all gonna make it

My old man came up in the seventies
He used to walk round with his Bowie LPs
His love of music he then passed on to me
And now I make it
Every generation fancies that it's
Gonna be the one to face the apocalypse
We’ve been through so much and yet still we persist
I know we gon make it
[Chorus]
We’re all gonna make it
No don’t you mistake it
My soul you can't take it
This role you can’t fake it
We’re all gonna make it

I’m one of the gang that came up in a time
When we hung out outside cos there was no online
What they unleashed on our world we had no chance to decline
I know what we lost and we gained at the same time
I’m so grateful to be here
The head of a line
That winds back through the ages to the dawn of time
Every woman and man that fought lived loved and died
Is here with me
They’re all on our side

[Chorus]
And we’re all gonna make it
No don’t you mistake it
This soul you can't take it
This role you can’t fake it
We’re all gonna make it
