Exactly how much will have to burn before we will look to the
past to learn.
We walk along this endless path which has led us in a
circle.
So here we are right back we can't let the future become our
past.

If we are to change the world, won't you tell me,
tell me please,
how many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?

When I was a baby, I was not prejudiced, hey how about you?
This was something that I learned in school, something they
taught us to do.
We can't let the future become our past.

If we are to change the world, won't you tell me,
tell me please,
how many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?

There must come a day when a box is not somebody's home.
The unfinished work of our heroes must truly be our own.
We can't let the future become our past.
If we are to change the world, won't you tell me,
tell me please,
how many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
