On the Streets
The newspapers the media, controlled by government, write what they were told to Thousands imprisoned and thousands are dead and tomorrow it starts again Can't believe what I see people get shot while they're fighting on the streets Houses burning to the ground just because a government has to show its power People fighting for their right to vote, to speak, for their freedom of mind Demonstrating peacefully on the streets ending up hunted down by law Why does it always have to end like this? Why can't it just once have a happy ending? People need to stand up and fight for their rights They've been oppressed way too long! A different country here today the same shit, what can I say? Bodies covering the streets just because they claimed democracy The first shot, the first scream, panic and rage ruling the streets It began with demonstration but again it leads to civil war Why does it always have to end like this? Why can't it just once have a happy ending? People need to stand up and fight for their rights They've been oppressed way too long! The newspapers the media, controlled by government, write what they were told to Thousands imprisoned and thousands are dead and tomorrow it starts again Why does it always have to end like this? Why can't it just once have a happy ending? We need to stand up and fight for our rights! We've been oppressed way too long! I can't believe what I see people get shot!
