Verse 1
So tell me family now what do you t hink?
Watch it all go down the great big si nk,
watch how the scum it rises to the top.
Don't you wonder when it's all gonna s top?
Sometimes I wonder how we do sleep,
serving the dodgy companies we k eep.
All kicking and scrounging for the very first p lace
- dictionary defintion of a rat r ace.
Pay off those losers we elect to l ead.
stealing from the mouths that we're meant to f eed.
Enslaving the very clothes upon my b ack,
I feel the sting but I hear no crac k, no crack, I'm sayin..
Chorus
Running through the fi re,
running through the f lame,
Running through the h atred,
pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and sh ame,
Revolution already un derway
Verse 2
Big heavy pirates man digging those holes,
messing with something that they can 't control.
Trespassing lands where they don't belong,
all I hear is screaming whee there o nce were songs.
I got my brothers there fighting tho se wars,
fighting over scraps and scraping th eir sores.
Under a blanket of a fire and pride that can't keep us warm for the cold
inside, inside,
I 'm saying
Chorus
Running through the fi re,
running through the f lame,
Running through the h atred,
pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and sh ame,
Revolution already un derway
Verse 3
So tell me when you think we're gon na rise?
Wake from this slumber wipe the tears from our eyes?
Yes from this nightmare yes I must now wake,
open my fist my destiny I t ake!
Good people sick and tired of being pushed around,
we call them kings but I see no cr own.
Tell me when you think we'll just s tand up?
Say enough is enough is enough, enoug h, I'm saying
Chorus
Running through the fi re,
running through the f lame,
Running through the h atred,
pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and sh ame,
Revolution already un derway
