Simply because you can breathe,<br>Doesn't mean you're alive,<br>Or that you really live,<br>This life here has taken it's toll<br>And she just doesn't know how much more she can give<br><br>But here, at the top of the world, I raise my hands and I clench my fists,<br>They stand before me below demanding the answers with flips of a switch<br><br>I don't understand where you got this idea,<br>So deeply engrained in your head<br>That this world is something that you must impress,<br>Because I couldn't care less<br><br>A need for revolution's rising, it comes to the surface, gasping for air,<br>We're not putting up with this planet one more day much less one more year<br><br>I don't understand where you got this idea,<br>So deeply engrained in your head<br>That this world is something that you must impress,<br>Because I couldn't care less<br><br>So here and now, in our rotting nation<br>The blood, it pours, it's all on our hands now<br>We live, in fear, of our own potential<br>To win, to lose, it's all on our hands now<br><br>I have an amerikan dream,<br>But it involves black masks and gasoline,<br>One day I'll turn these thoughts into screams,<br>At a world turned it's back down on me<br><br>I don't understand where you got this idea,<br>So deeply engrained in your head<br>That this world is something that you must impress,<br>Because I couldn't care less
