Lyrics
Rise, Stand Up On Your Feet! There's Pain and Panic in the Street You race each day to survive As the angry faces collide How much more can I take The tensions building up more every day Something here has got to give To loosen up these ropes so we can live Top government officials are corrupt And the people they govern have just had enough Gun violence in schools is on the rise Parental authority our kids despise Rise, Stand Up on your Feet! There's pain and panic in the street You race each day to survive As the angry faces collide Where will this all lead to It's taking all my time and energy If this world only knew And took note of the signs of this century Dishonesty rules in a land Where injustice and violence are in command But not one of their schemes or their plans Is gonna change what's coming How much more can I take? Something's got to give How much more am I to take, this crazy livin It's taking everything I've got, the more I'm givin The city's got a row of teeth, and you're it's prey You gotta move just like a bullet to get away Rise, Stand Up on your Feet! There's pain and panic in the street You race each day to survive As the angry faces collide
