You asked me how I'm doing today

I say the same as yesterday, struggling to get by

Doin' what I have to do to survive

You said what's your problem, you can change

Get a full time job, live the American way

I looked you in the eye and said

I just wanna get away from it all

There are many people just like me

who have lost all hope in society

We're singing the revolution is on the way

-Revolution

Everybody's sayin' the same thing

from suburban youth to inner city gangs

Things are going to explode

this generations future is looking bleak

More and more people are going to jail

The standard of living is shot to hell

How much will it take?

People will only be pushed so far

(Chorus)

The struggle continues, it's always around

There's power in numbers

We can't be held down

If you think it's futile and nothing can change

Roll over and die and get out of our way

Don't hold us back

We're singing the revolution is on the way

-Revolution

A free world for all

We're singing the revolution is on the way!
