Lyrics

We the people
Get to shine a light
We the people
We got the right
We the people
It’s later than you think
We the people
We’re standing on the brink
 
Time for a change nothing but pain
Minimum wage feeling the rage
Turning the page setting the stage
Changing the game not staying the same
Breaking the chains unlocking the door
We can do more lets settle the score
Open our hearts take care of the poor
Back to the roots strengthen the core
 
See the people
Who don’t look like you
See the people
With a different view
Free the people
From a world of pain
Free the people
Got to break the chain
 
What is the name what is the game
What is the aim chasing the fame
What are we doing where are we going
What is the plan what do we gain
My people locked in a cage
(We the people)
Sounds like much of the same
Lust for money and diamonds and chains
Got me burning the sage
(See the people)
Feeling defeated I’m seeing things I’m not believing
Mistreated the population is chasing demons
(Free the people)
I really mean it devilish ways the leaders is slaves
Sending ’em back to the caves
Land of the free home of the brave
 
We the people
Got to let love in
We the people
Time is wearin’ thin
Serpents swarm warfare ring the alarm
(We the people)
Cover your head they dropping bombs
(Got the right to say)
But who did I harm to be losing a arm
Conflict resolution
(It’s in the constitution)
Governmental institution
(Of this here USA)
 
We the people
We the people
We got the right
