๐ Lyrics
I've been sitting here all day
Trying to understand
Why people wants to rule each other
When the problem's close at hand
A little less of what you want
And more of what you're got
Is enough to keep you struggling
Without hatching other plots
But justify yourself
Don't satisfy yourself
You should be outthere roting
Say the power mongers gloating
You hide behind the left or right
To add power to your claims
But what you're really saying
Doesn't need theories to explain
Self glorification is what you really mean
The glory you say you despise
Is what mankes it move obscure
I'll fight to make life better
In any way I can
I'll break the rules that you tie to me
If it means staying who I am
Don't tell me how to live my life
Don't tell me what you do
Repression always brought about
By people with politics and attitudes like you
People
And politics
And attitudes
And you
Trying to understand
Why people wants to rule each other
When the problem's close at hand
A little less of what you want
And more of what you're got
Is enough to keep you struggling
Without hatching other plots
But justify yourself
Don't satisfy yourself
You should be outthere roting
Say the power mongers gloating
You hide behind the left or right
To add power to your claims
But what you're really saying
Doesn't need theories to explain
Self glorification is what you really mean
The glory you say you despise
Is what mankes it move obscure
I'll fight to make life better
In any way I can
I'll break the rules that you tie to me
If it means staying who I am
Don't tell me how to live my life
Don't tell me what you do
Repression always brought about
By people with politics and attitudes like you
People
And politics
And attitudes
And you
