The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What the fuck is up, Deadkru
I am here
To let you know
That this world
Is yours for the taking
So let me see you run it
Growing up no one gave us anything
Hand to mouth struggling just to make ends meet
Two jobs only making two hundred a week
(It's time to let us)
It's time to let us speak
'Cause we can have whatever we want
Yeah, we can have whatever we want
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
(Can you feel the riot coming)
Have you had enough
Are you fed up
Are you one of us
We pick each other up
Find within yourself whatever power you hold dear
The strength to make somebody else
Survive the weight that pushed you here
'Cause we can have whatever we want
Yeah, we can have whatever we want
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
(Can you feel the riot coming)
We are the few
We'll get what's due
Always come through
Deadkru, fuck you
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
(Can you feel the riot coming)
You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
