You better get down if you wanted to live
You better hold on or you'll cease to exist
You better never ever question their way.
You better get down, you better get down.
Bang! Bang! You're dead before you hit the ground.
There were bullet holes before you heard the sound.
I bet you thought you had a chance.
Bang! Bang! You're dead before you hit the ground.
This is war.
You better get down if you wanted to live
You better hold on or you'll cease to exist
You better never ever question their way.
You better get down, you better get down.
They sleep in comfort with our trust
But rest assured that it wont last long.
Don't believe a word that they say
They'll feed you lies with every image they televise.
Don't believe what they do
Cause it's far from true.
Don't believe a word they say.
They'll feed you lies yeah to compromise.
You better get down if you wanted to live
You better hold on or you'll cease to exist
Wake up it's happening all around us.
Stand up and be counted in what you believe.
This flag will burn and leave us amongst ashes
Of corruption and greed, smoldering.
Don't believe a word they say
They'll feed you lies with every image they televise.
Don't believe what they do
cause it's far from true.
Don't believe a word they say.
They'll feed you lies yeah to compromise.
You better get down if you wanted to live
You better get down if you wanted to live
You better hold on or you'll cease to exist
Do you want to be a part of this?
