Lyrics

All you slingers and fiends Hide behind your rocks Put down your gloves I'm not here to box This is no showdown So throw down your guns You see it doesn't matter Where you come from You could be from Park Ave Or from a park bench You could be a politician Or a bitchy princess But if you're lookin' for a fist And you're lookin' to unite Put your knuckleheads together Make a fist and fight Not to your death And not to your grave I'm talkin' bout that freedom Fight like a brave Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid If you're sick-a-sick n tired Of being sick and tired If you're sick of all the bullshit And you're sick of all the lies It's better late than never To set-a-set it straight You know the lie is dead So give yourself a break Get it through your head And get it off your chest Get it out your arm Because it's time to start fresh You want to stop dying The life you could be livin' I'm here to tell a story But I'm also here to listen No I'm not your preacher And I'm not your physician I'm just trying to reach you I'm a rebel with a mission Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid You say you're running and you're running And you're running afraid You say you ran across the planet But you couldn't get away The fire in your brain Was driving you insane You were looking for a day In a life that never came So don't tell me that I've got to take a number Cause I've been to that doctor And believe me that's a bummer He's one of a kind Convention of the mind And don't forget to mention That it doesn't cost a dime Come as you like And leave any time And one more thing You know it doesn't have to rhyme Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid Fight like a brave - don't be a slave No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
