We are fighting a war
Here we come now living in a new age
Where the roles are set to tear us apart
Here we come now fighting for a living wage

It's time. The pleas from the politicians to the poor
Do nothing but distort the truths they tire
The system is built to keep us from ourselves

You ask what I can give?
I've got nothing for you, but everything for a better way.
So you demand that we live under your laws hiding from the fact
We are at war

At war
We are at war
At war
At war

Do we settle for the system or do we fight for our own voice?
Will we force them all to listen?
Is it all coming down to
One choice?

Do we settle for the system or do we fight for our own voice?
Will we force them all to listen?
Is this all coming down to one
Choice?

So I wait for a change to come, and I ask myself
Why does everyday the sky remain over our heads?
So would it be impossible to tear it down?
Now would it be impossible to tear it down?
To tear it down.
Down.

I've got nothing for you.

So you ask what I can give?
I've got nothing for you, but everything for a better way.
So you demand that I live under your laws still blinded from the fact
We are at war

At war
At war
At war

So here we come now living in a new age
Where the roles are set to tear us apart
Here we come now fighting for a living wage

The pleas from the politicians to the poor
Do nothing but distort the entire truths
The system is built on

How long must we wait?
