You asked me how Im doing today
I said the same as yesterday struggling to get by
Doin what I have to do to survive
You said whats your problem,
You can change get a full time job
Live the american way
I looked you in the eye and said
I just want to get away, from it all

Theres many people like me
Who have lost all hope in society
Were singin the revolution is on the way
-revolution!! everybodys 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

The struggle continues its always around
Theres power in numbers
We cant be held down
If you think its futile and nothing can change
Roll over and die and get out of the way
Dont hold us back
Were singin the revolution is on the way
We will stay discontent
Were singin the revolution is on the way
A free world for all
Were singin the revolution is on the way
