The world we want to live in is too far away The bad times are here to stay All hope is gone and there’s nothing we can do Apathy is everywhere the rebels are too few No one is listening to the screams and shouts We’re powerless and we can’t break out Revolution was just a futile dream The struggle’s been lost or so it seems
But the only struggle that is lost is the one that’s never fought so lift your head up high and fight to win Demand the impossible with a new world in our hearts Stay solid never give in
Everything has a price and it’s all doomed to be used, exploited and consumed A devastated planet pushed over the brink Millions of species made extinct So much life annihilated by politics Toxic air and chemicals keep us sick Desperate people, ruined lives everywhere Suffering’s so normal that no one cares Children learn early on that life is cruel Violence and domination are what rules We’ll never know peace or freedom or a life not sold We’re defeated, beaten, numb and so controlled
There’s many of us having a go and living our lives against the flow Remember that you are not alone and nothing here is set in stone Recognize our struggles are all linked and things can change faster than you think Victories and struggle can be won The impossible can be done
