Mea Culpa - Whose Streets? lyrics
Cold November morning comes but 40,000 feel the sun Of a new day that is rising in our hearts Like an army with non-violent cause we march into the gaping maw Of a system that would tear us all apart The blue and green, the black and white, united, finally, in a common fight Where silence ends up skewered on a pike This beautiful, chaotic sight, people finally living out their bill of rights Don't close your eyes, 'cause this is what democracy looks like WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS! We built them now it's time to take them back WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS! And they're never gonna push us through the cracks WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS! We are standing here by popular demand WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS! We The people gonna finally make our stand Cut the phone and cut the lights, try and scare us into thinking that we've got no rights Keep pushing and you're gonna force our hand With hope and anger on our eyes, don't ever forget where the power lies The only real defeat is not to stand This is not the start, this is not the end, there's a movement rising and a world to mend A world that we've been waiting for too long We don't agree on eveything, there are many voices with which we sing But this street's our stage and there's no way to disregard our song (CHORUS) Buried in the lie, running out of time Open up your eyes, with this battle cry (CHORUS) |
