Hear The People

Rage against the system The things that we've been taught Can't always play the victim In cages we have sought Race against the clock To undo these locks Question things that we have fought Challenge all that we have thought Every stone they throw at me I will use to build me up Every shot they take at me Tells me I should not give up Now's the time to raise our voice Speak up now or have no choice Every rock's a stepping stone Stand together not alone We will not be quiet We will not be bought We will start a riot We will not be caught Can you hear the people? Can you hear the people? Can you hear the people? Can you hear the people? Fight against the system That tries to shut us out No gates, no laws, no distance Could ever keep us out Fight the institutions No man and no religion Can block the constitution Of our revolution Every stone they throw at me I will use to build me up Every shot they take at me Tells me I should not give up Now's the time to raise our voice Speak up now or have no choice Every rock's a stepping stone Stand together not alone We will not be quiet We will not be bought We will start a riot We will not be caught Can you hear the people? Can you hear the people? Can you hear the people? Can you hear the people? The same sun shines on all of us But the light won't shine on all of us Some have to work a little harder Some have to shout a little louder We won't give up, we won't be stunted Till we're heard, we're seen and counted Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people, hear the people People Hear the people
