Way down here on these dead end streets

People live in doubt and fear

And it kept them down for oh so long

Now their time is getting near

I don't know where

I don't know how

I don't know when

But I'll tell you right now



[Chorus:]

One of these days you'll cross that line

The people gonna take you by surprise

The're gonna look their leaders in the eye (yeah)

One of these days you'll cross that line

The people gonna think with their own minds

They're gonna leave the system for behind (yeah)



How many of us spend our lives

On the outside lookin in

Well it seems they got us all convinced

That we're never gonna win

I don't know where

I don't know how

I don't know when

But I'll tell you right now



[Chorus]



[Bridge]

Do you really think we'll ever stop

Lookin for as brighter day

While it looks today like you're on top

It could neverstay that way
