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 |
