There's nothing that helps you from drowning
Drowning from the things that cannot be changed
Happiness in living is so far away from this place
It's easy to see sadness on your face
You just have to pray and fight
There is no better day in sight

Poor people eat from rich ones hands
Thinking they are going to help our land
There are people out there
Who have swallowed their pride
Their love and rights are swept aside
It's so hard to control our minds
When money and food are so damn hard to find

Chorus:
When you're trying to flee, and you're all tied up
It's hard to be on the winning side
By killing your friends and loving your gun
Prepare to die and be ready to run
'cos the battle never stops if that is the way
There'll always be a new hero of the day
See your dreams and hopes sink
This could be the right to stop and think
You can't be wrong and it's never too late
Before you lose your faith, yeah lose your faith

When you give one man the right to judge our lives
Half of the people are carrying knives
Stupid laws and murders, can't stop the dying
I think it's my turn to start crying
The bullet in your heart, it can't be real
When your life is over, it's too late to feel
