Tell everyone
We will rise up
To fight your evil
We the people
Will overcome

Yeah

We ain't part
Of the war that you are fighting in our name
You can say
It's for the good of this whole country just the same
We don't want
A holy war, no we just tryin' ta live in peace
There's no way
We're proud of things you do, to say the least (to say the least)

To fight your evil

And I'm not ready to give up, our soul

Send my dreams out of airplanes
Ain't got no gold or silver to my name
I don't need to win my battles
When a pistol-headed man will do the same
Don't say you'd do this for us
When you don't even know who we are
We just need love and our families
Sat on a cloudy day, and closed the box (closed the box)

And it's time that we remember
