I was afraid of the fight
But then I realized
Thereâs no-one coming to save us
The sheriffâs just a hired gun
What makes us trust in them
Weâve had to fight to survive
Every one of our rights
Cost us so many lives
So how can we just look away
When they divide us up weâre so easy to swallow
How can you just look away
CHORUS:â
Revolution Now
ââThey belong in jail
ââTake away their power
ââGive it back to the people
ââDonât just let them get away
ââDonât let them get away
Once I believed in the press
But now I can see
Everythingâs just for sale
Whistleblowers put to rest
Like a little child in his room
They keep us locked away
While they pocket the moon
Distract us with useless news
How can you doubt when you know
That what you see is what they want you to get
Itâs a public relations show
CHORUS
Weâve got to fight
Take our might to the streets, yeah
And keep them from oppressing the masses
Give up our rights and weâre all gonna lose our asses
CHORUS
Revolution
They try to cover up the truth, yeah
Revolution
As they knife the constitution
Revolution
All around the world theyâre just getting away
