No Slaves |
Calling, calling, they sit you down |
Meeting after meeting they churn 'em out |
All in my head, all in my city |
Numerous ways to let you down |
I know, I know, I know, I know |
You can’t touch a kettle, it’s burning hot |
Always left alone and no one’s ever home |
But only open up the door when opportunity knocks like… |
(Oh hey yeah) |
Oh we don’t wanna be slaves, we don’t wanna be slaves |
(Oh hey yeah) |
No, not gonna stand it, not gonna stand it |
(Oh hey yeah) |
Oh we don’t wanna be slaves, we don’t wanna be slaves |
(Oh hey yeah) |
No, not gonna stand it, not gonna stand it |
Oh I keep falling, falling, and falling down |
The meek shall rise above the ground |
All in my mind, all in my city |
Will find a million ways to drag you down |
I know, I know, I said I know |
Cause I’ve been told many times before |
Always left alone and no one’s ever home |
But only open up the door when opportunity knocks like… |
(Oh hey yeah) |
Oh we don’t wanna be slaves, we don’t wanna be slaves |
(Oh hey yeah) |
No, not gonna stand it, not gonna stand it |
(Oh hey yeah) |
Oh we don’t wanna be slaves, we don’t wanna be slaves |
(Oh hey yeah) |
No, not gonna stand it, not gonna stand it |
You spent your whole life working a nine to five |
You put your dreams on hold for nickles and dimes |
Don’t you remember what it was you wanted in life? |
Did you forget about the pennies you threw in the well wishing? |
Your grave shift would be over, you dying inside |
Oh you a slave to the rhythm, your body and mind prison |
Now how do you find freedom? |
You stuck in a bind needing |
A break from the mundane is something divine |
And we just wanna hear the misery |
Ain’t it a shame what we do just to do to the assembly |
It can be so much better than what was given to me |
Don’t know how much more I can give 'em me |
Something gotta give for me to be |
I’m jumping off right into the sea |
We don’t wanna be, we don’t wanna be |
Look we don’t wanna be no slaves, no, no |
We don’t wanna be, we don’t wanna be |
Look we don’t wanna be no slaves, no, no |
We don’t wanna be, we don’t wanna be |
Look we don’t wanna be no slaves, no |
