I'm calling out
|
Only echoes respond
|
But I scream 'til my voice is gone
|
Crouching in corners and hiding your face
|
I'm sick and tired of playing your games
|
|
I'm not alone
|
I stand amongst the voiceless
|
Millions in the unforgiving sun
|
|
Here arm-in-arm
|
We parade these streets
|
And sing our songs (and sing our songs)
|
|
We've had enough
|
Is there even anything left to explain? (We've had enough)
|
Am I really someone you need to restrain? (We've had enough)
|
Can't you listen to what we have to say? (We've had enough)
|
|
Unknowing, we lie and wait for the rain
|
To wash away what they have made
|
Face down in the dirt with your foot on my back
|
In the distance I hear thunder crack
|
|
C'mon Stand up !
|
This system of power and privilege is about to come to an end
|
Here come the clouds
|
The first drop is falling down (falling down)
|
|
We've had enough
|
Is there even anything left to explain? (We've had enough)
|
Am I really someone you need to restrain? (We've had enough)
|
Can't you listen to what we have to say? (We've had enough)
|
|
Our futures burn in red horizons
|
Ashes scattered in winds of change
|
Casualty numbers are rising
|
Now it's time to raise the stakes
|
|
We're meant for something more than living just to put food on our plates
|
I can't help but wonder--why should we participate?
|
|
We've had enough
|
Is there even anything left to explain? (We've had enough)
|
Am I really someone you need to restrain? (We've had enough)
|
Can't you listen to what we have to say? (We've had enough)
