Lyrics
Lately I've been thinking
'Bout my situation
Building walls around me
With their legislation
If you only could see
All the lies you've believed
The wrong that needs undoing
There's a power we command
If united we stand
Fighting for your rights
And you never thought that it could happen to you
I believe the basic thing in life
Should be free
Health and education
Have priority
And they're selling to us
What we already own
All we take for granted
There are lessons to learn
But the tide could turn
So it's down to you
And you never thought that it could happen to you
Hold on
Everything's gonna be alright.
If you only could see
All the lies you've believe
The wrong that needs undoing
There's a power we command
If united we stand
Fighting for our rights.
