Lyrics

Intro

Yeah

Uh-huh

Listen up

Chorus

This one's for the kids who ain't here yet

Planting seeds in soil that we never get to see

This one's for the ones who inherit the debt

Build a better morning than the one you're handed to me

Post-Chorus

For the young

For the young

For the young ones coming

Verse 1

I was raised on borrowed promises

Hand-me-down dreams and a folded map

Somebody's fear taught me how to run

But nobody taught me how to come back

So I'm learning out loud in the open

Every scar is a lesson I pass along

If you listen close to a broken voice

You can hear where the courage belongs

Chorus

This one's for the kids who ain't here yet

Planting seeds in soil that we never get to see

This one's for the ones who inherit the debt

Build a better morning than the one you're handed to me

Post-Chorus

For the young

For the young

For the young ones coming

Verse 2

Teach them patience

Teach them how to stand their ground

Show them kindness costs you nothing

But it turns a whole life around

Let them question everything I say

Let them outgrow every word I wrote

Hand them water not a wall

Give them room to row their own boat

Bridge

What we leave is not the money

Not the medals on the shelf

What we leave is how we loved them

And how they learn to love themselves

Chorus

This one's for the kids who ain't here yet

Planting seeds in soil that we never get to see

This one's for the ones who inherit the debt

Build a better morning than the one you're handed to me

Post-Chorus

For the young

For the young

For the young ones coming

Yeah

For the young ones coming
