Under the mat, ---- thought we could do

[Bridge]
Dm Em F
It is my desire, break down the walls
G Am
To connect, inspire, ay, up in your high place, liars

Time is ticking for the empire

Dm
The truth they feed is feeble

As so many times before

They greed over the people
G
They stumbling and fumbling and we about to riot
G
They woke up, they woke up the lions
