I can’t believe the news today
Oh, i can’t close my eyes
And make it go away
How long
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long
‘cause tonight
We can be as one tonight
Tonight
Broken bottles under children’s feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But i won’t heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall
Yeah, the world is burning and turnin’
Just another day
Politicians' off that they can’t obey
Like mot off, pass all off
Revenge a revolution
That is what the people say
We want a freedom
We want a piece of
Everything that was promised and we dreamed of
I ain’t violent but i ain’t silent
So if you try to stop us you better bring the sirens
How long
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long
‘cause tonight
We can be as one
Tonight
We can be as one
Tonight
Puts my back up against the wall
Tonight
