Somebody's looking for the edge of the seat
Instead of leaning back and taking the beat
Freedom of living, speaking, getting things done
Transformed into one big competition
To see who's mouth gets the loudest
Well, things bent will finally break
Respect and understanding the tools
Replaced by ignorance and cheering for fools
What if the first thing we thought of wasn't ourselves
And money wasn't happiness
Freedom of living, speaking, getting things done
Transformed into one big competition
To see who's mouth gets the loudest
Well, things bent will finally break
They're racing with the top down
Though they know that it ain't right
No one is eager to stop the fight
They think it goes away
That we are gonna change our minds
When we know that it ain't right
We're never gonna lose our sight
Freedom of living, speaking, getting things done
Transformed into one big competition
To see who's mouth gets the loudest
Well, things bent will finally break
They're racing with the top down
Though they know that it ain't right
No one is eager to stop the fight
They think it goes away
That we are gonna change our minds
When we know that it ain't right
Whether it's day or if it's night
We're never gonna lose our sight
