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.
We won't, we won't (hey)
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't (hey)
We won't be slaves
We're turning the tides
Uncovered the crimes
We've given the world, but we're the sacrifice
The keys to the kingdom, locked from our freedom
But we won't be slaves to the system (system, system)
I'm feelin' like there's just no way of stoppin' this
They're sayin' it's the end
And now I'm staring at the back of the apocalypse
I'm watchin' this
Our families stressin' and shoppin' less
While politicians and bankers collectin' all the stock tips
And not just this
But now our industries are populace
And fallen victim to the plague and elitists seem like novices
It's obvious and all of the rich remain the dominant
And poor fools with nothing to lose dream of opulence
Betrayed us all now they leave us in chains
But we will never be slaves
We're turning the tides
Uncovered the crimes
We've given the world, but we're the sacrifice
The keys to the kingdom, locked from our freedom
But we won't be slaves
Foot in the fire
Burned by desire
Traded our world for yet another liar
We'll break the affliction
We've been the victims
But we won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
Social media feedin' the readings on your telescope
Foggy vision is causing division, check your horoscope
Never mind intervention defined without a shred of hope
Suicidal thoughts invade your mind but you forgot the rope
Betrayed us all but you already know
They'll never stop, no, they'll never let go
Won't let go
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
We're turning the tides
Uncovered the crimes
We've given the world, but we're the sacrifice
The keys to the kingdom locked from our freedom
But we won't be slaves
Foot in the fire
Burned by desire
Traded our world for yet another liar
We'll break the affliction
We've been the victims
But we won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
Open your eyes before it's the end
They're saying it's the end
And now I'm staring at the back of the apocalypse
Open your eyes before it's the end
Foggy vision is causing divisions on your telescope
Open your eyes, say it again
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't
We won't be slaves to the system
