I was told that i had to work/I was told that i had to pay my bills/That i accumulate each day/I was forced, they run my life/I was forced, they had no right/I was taught to think and act that way/I was told to learn all i can/And grow up to be the type of man/That everyone respects to his face
I was told what i couldn't do and what i needn't to/That i needn't improve to progress their way/But now its plain to see i want more from me/And their teachings wont lead me astray
I was told to learn all i can/To grow up and be the type of man/That i dont want to be in no time nor place/Now i see the teardrops pour/From all the thousands who fall/Victims to this vicious type of play
I was told what i couldn't do and what i needn't to/That i needn't improve to progress their way/But now its plain to see i want more from me/And their teachings wont lead me astray
They've got money on their side/We've got nothing left but pride/There's a proper place for peace/And if its a change you do seek/The gather up everyone/AND REVOLT NOW!
