We Are Tomorrow Lyrics

Freeze the frame, memorize it
Take the mistakes, and don't go back
To where we've always been
The time has come that we begin, to shine
To shine
It's our time
It's now or never

CHORUS:
We want today
We want yesterday
We are tomorrow

Here we come, it's our season
I swear that it's true
But it takes more than what we are
Faith in more than what we are to shine, to shine
It's our time
It's now or never

*CHORUS*

Can we ever, it's now or never it's our time
We will ever, it's now or never.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

as a senior in high school, I see this song as representative of where I am right now - I'm about to go off to college, and while it's not really "the real world" it is where I will begin to form what I'm going to do with my life.

"We want today" means people my age are eager to seize the opportunities around them. "We want yesterday" shows that sometimes we long for things to be as they were in the past - it's our way of shying away from the responsibilities of life. "We Are Tomorrow" is a simple but powerful statement of truth: one day, those older than us will retire and die, and we will be the ones in charge, offering the next generation hope that they are tomorrow.

"Here we come, it's our season" because as we enter and pass through college it is my generation's "time to shine" as we come into our own, break free from our parents, and begin making a bigger impact on the world around us as we take jobs and start families. However, to truly shine, we need God on our side. This is indicated by the lines "it takes more than what we are/faith in more than what we are to shine"

This song is a truly great ode to the hope the future offers.
