lyrics

Don't wanna be another part in the product line but I forgot how to write
I get scared that my future won't be to plan, it's not looking to bright
As I help more rich men drill more holes into the ground
Before setting myself on fire and making myself drown

I used to see an end coming but now I see it's change
The kids growing up today are part of a new age
And I welcome all the questions and the protests of past ways
It's always been so obvious nothing can stay the same

We're not falling we are rising, this is awakening
It's the only way to sustain this miracle that we're living
There is so much more above you so stop looking at your feet
Or the tax papers and interest rates that put us on the street

But you sit in a sad state of acceptance out of fear
Say, "It's just the way it is, and always we'll be here."
But that's exactly where they want us
And you can free your mind
It's happening all over the world so it's just a matter of time

Before 51% of us we say enough's enough
We all put down our guns and start spreading some love
Yeah I know that we've had dreamers before and they have all been shot
But there's 7 billion of us here so let's all quit our jobs

And see what happens when, they lose the tool of profit
Coz it's just an idea like you are an idea
And break down every barrier until we realise
That they only built them for their lies to hide behind
Then we have a blank canvas again to paint with a new brush
And learn that in the first place there were never any doors to shut
Yeah, we made that up to just like status, race and class
And the face (hand) we thought was feeding us was covered by a mask

We're not falling we are rising, this is awakening
It's the only way to sustain this miracle that we've been given
There is so much more above you so stop looking at your feet
Or the taglines and the slogans that'll bring ya to your knees
