LYRICS

Aren't you fed up?

 

Aren’t you fed up always giving, taking nothing in return?

Letting schemers, parasites ever sucking in your blood; ever sucking in your heart.

Stop self deceiving! You are no-one’s concern!

Enough with creeping! Stand up now, use your brain!

 

Fight fear, speak your mind!

Get a voice, find your pride!

Show passion! Try to get your hands untied!

You have power! Do now what the time wants!

 

No more passive, no more passed by!

You have power! Try to find your pride.

 

Look ahead, not behind; no more sticking to the past.

Fight custom! Change your life! Don’t be lazy to adjust!

 

See far! Get close! Time your senses to unlock.

Local minded no longer; now its earth where you belong.
