(Intro)
We been dealing with the heat, yeah
Destruction and turmoil
But this is the fire
That will refurbish the soil
And we stand

United in our discomfort
We're growing stronger every summer
We stay awake while the others slumber
Uh breathe in deep

Feel every little piece of it
Wonder if I'll stay strong enough, long enough
Yeah, because they don't fight fair
They turn on the people

Forgotten where they are from
Forgot that the air they breathing
Is the same that fills our lungs
Now we could be angry, we can be violent
We could stand by, we could be silent
Oh we could

(Chorus)
This is the changes
The war of ages
That they wage, while we pay their wages
We could say
We could say one, two, three
Said we've been here before
And it's about time they remember who it is they working for
We know the strength and the power
And the power in the persistence
So respect our existence
Or expect our resistance
Every time, yeah
Expect our resistance every time

(Verse)
People told to hold tight
Said it's gonna go get better widow
But time after time we do what they don't for us
And we forgive 'em

Well it's gone on down for a bit too long
Since my granddad was born
They been lying to us about the family
Tryin' to, to keep us torn

But now I see that us and them
Said it's only a game to you
Cause when we talk to one another
Said we know that that ain't true
Cause I said that I am you, and you are me
And we are one, we're family
It's only them who want to see us turn away from unity

(Chorus)
We could be angry, we could be violent
We could stand by, we could be silent
Oh we could

Now resist the changes, the war of ages
That they wage, while we pay their wages
We could say

We could say one, two, three
Said that we've been here before
And it's about time they remember who it is they working for
Cause we know the strength and the power
And the power in the persistence
So respect our existence
Or expect our resistance
Every time, yeah
Expect our resistance every time

(Outro)
There is an us in them
But it ain't me and you
There is an us in them
But it ain't me and you
There is an us in them
But it ain't me and you
