[Verse 1]
Moonwalking, time travel
New day, more truth unravel
Mars landing, space gravel
Mankind still a fight and squabble
iPod, King James Bible
Slingshot onto long cal, rifle
Tower of Babel, Tower of Eiffel
Twelve month a year, but thirteen disciple
Saddam, Bin Laden, Gaddafi, Idi Amin
Call of duty, drone bombin'
Stealth bomber, more famine
Biometrics, eye scannin'
Airport body search and swappin'
More police harassment and naggin'
More stick-up and random bank robbin'
Sufferation, plus swagging
Equal one big conflict we're having
Chain grabba, hijackin'
Nowadays is computa hackin'
ID thief an' credit card scammin'
Social network, bloggin' an spammin'
Hi-def TV, surround sound pannin'
Next generation, FIFA and Madden
More problem, more panic
Suddenly now more planet
More places man can inhabit
Colonize and breed up like rabbits
Contaminate and spread dirty habit
Cross populate and thief dem knowledge
And sell it right back in the college
Meanwhile they call 'em savage
[Chorus]
What will the future bring for me?
Cause global warming feels so cold
What will the future bring? What will the future bring?
What will the future bring for me
If my little son is seven years old
What will the future bring for him? What will the future bring?
[Verse 2]
What's real life? What's virtual?
What's fiction? What's factual?
Who's partial? Who's neutral?
What's not real? What's natural?
Who's actin'? Who's actual?
What's cheap talk? What's action?
What's ours? What's fractionated?
What's plus or subtraction?
Aquarius, then Pisces
Al Qaeda, then ISIS
Stock markets in crisis
Governments raise tax and prices
Countless warships on the high seas
Gang war and the streets full of sirens
Like Wi-Fi at the high speed
Shot a shell, like grains of rices
Mother ball, I beg dem why please
Man a fall, head a roll like lychees
One and all, get cold like night breeze
Man at arms
[Chorus]
What will the future bring?
If half of the animals face extinction
What will the future bring for us? What will the future bring?
What will the future bring
No more ancient scrolls to give direction
What will the future bring for me? What will the future bring?
