Everyday i listened to you and nothing's ever good enough

you're always complaining about something you act so goddamn tough

but all you ever do is let someone do your thinking for you

and you have no respect for my opinion

well at least i think for myself i`m not brainwashed

to think like people that rule

i'm not a pool and i'll rise i wont compromise

and i'll never give up, i won't walk walk walk away

there won't be another day when i can say hey hey hey... freedom

you talk to me i see your lips move

but the words that come out aren't yours they're someone elses

you dangle from their strings beneath the wings

of the eagle you push but i'll never fall

i'm not the only one whose willing to stand up..

we've had enough your laws just benifit you

we watch you get richer as we get sicker

and we'll rise with battle cries and we'll never give up
