Every thing`s gonna be alright boys, help is on the way
Hold your head up high now, there`s no need to cry now
We`re not running anymore

Leave the politics behind boys, they`re not working anymore
There`s so much more at stake here, it`s make or break here
Haven`t we been here before - tell me what we`re waiting for

You gotta remember, you don`t have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you want to say
You gotta remember, don`t let `em take away
The land we call the home of the brave

Who sings the song of the people, you don`t hear it anymore
I heard it late last summer, to the beat of a different drummer
It never sounded quite like that before

So you`re trying to shake this feeling, that trouble`s right outside the door
You lie awake each dark night, like a time bomb wound up too tight
A storm in waiting, just offshore - tell me what we`re waiting for
