Time is truly wastin'
|
There's no guarantee
|
Smile's in the makin'
|
You gotta fight the powers that be
|
Got so many forces
|
Stayin' on the scene
|
Givin' up all around me
|
Faces full a' pain
|
I try to play my music
|
They say my music's too loud
|
I kept talkin about it
|
I got the big run around
|
When I rolled with the punches
|
I got knocked on the ground
|
With all this bullshit going down
|
|
Time is truly wastin'
|
There's no guarantee
|
Smile's in the makin'
|
We gotta fight the powers that be
|
I don't understand it
|
People wanna see, ya
|
Those that got the answers
|
Red tape in the way
|
I could take you in easy
|
That's just half the fun, oh boy
|
Seeking my satisfaction
|
Keeps me on the run
|
I try to play my music
|
They say my music's too loud
|
I try talkin about it
|
I got the big run around
|
And when I rolled with the punches
|
I got knocked on the ground
|
With all this bullshit going down
|
Time is truly wastin'
|
There's no guarantee
|
Smile's in the makin'
|
You gotta fight the powers that be
|
|
If you and I can - we got the power
|
Fight it, got the power fight it...baby, baby
|
Fight it, fight the power
|

Fight The Power
