| I’m tired of American socialite culture
|
| God it makes me sick
|
| I’ve got so much fire burning deep inside
|
| The time has come to face the truth and bring about a change
|
| I don’t care about all your books and magazines
|
| All these new evolving scenes or plastic teenage dreams
|
| Want to sing for all the angry kids up on the block
|
| The kids are fighting dope, the people time forgot
|
| These things are the things that stir my soul, impassion me to sing
|
| Got so much frustration, really starting to sting
|
| See so many faults, got things to vent and lose
|
| All fed up with everything so this is what I choose
|
| We have had, had enough
|
| The time has come to call their bluff
|
| This is a battle cry for the common people
|
| The forgotten nowhere kids stuck in the middle
|
| We’re singing this song for all of the common people
|
| Who’ve given up so much and gotten back so little
|
| And another thing that bothers me is the black gold gang and how they use the
|
| poor
|
| With arrogance and lies, all those fake smiles
|
| The time has come to call them out so let the gloves come off
|
| Us lower class kids get stuck inside a rich man’s war
|
| Seems like less about the freedom and more like mining with the world
|
| And we’re not born of entitlement, we hump down in the dirt
|
| Sometimes it makes us wonder what we’re really fighting for
|
| These are things that light my fuse and make me wonder why
|
| Losing my grip on the handle, off it I might fly
|
| See so many faults, got things to vent and lose
|
| All fed up with everything, so this is what I choose
|
| We have had, had enough
|
| The time has come to call their bluff
|
| This is a battle cry for the common people
|
| The forgotten nowhere kids stuck
|
| We’re singing this song for all of the common people
|
| Who’ve given up so much and got back so little
|
| Got a lot on my mind, too much something I think
|
| Pretty damn opinionated, makes me sort of sink
|
| Should I give it up? |
| Close my mouth for good?
|
| Go back to work, I should… Hell no!
|
| This is a battle cry for the common people
|
| The forgotten nowhere kids stuck
|
| We’re singing this song for all of the common people
|
| Who’ve given up so much and got back so little
|
| Got no more to talk about, this is where we are
|
| Not a damn expert I only sing what’s in my heart
|
| This is what we have to say and this is what we do
|
| And if you don’t like it… Fuck You! |
