Can't you see

At this pace

We're loosing steam

We digress right to the seat of our convictions

And so we believe

We see the signs

In the thousands of misused lives

So will you speak your mind or become the oppression?

And we all feel

The heartache that comes with time

And we now see

A bigger picture

Shut down the system

Why can't you can't listen to me said the people

Who are dying for this revolution to free them

The cities are burning / the skies are on fire

With this information to shut down the system

We are bombed

And broke and sold

Our first call this earth our own

Does this not scream out that we are wasting away our vision?

Of bountiful

Abundant life

Our given right in ourselves to survive

We'll we give up our lives if we bow silently and comply

Shut down the system

Why can't you can't listen to me said the people

Who are dying for this revolution to free them

The cities are burning / the skies are on fire

With this information to shut down the system

Shut down the system

Shut down the system

Shut down the system

Why can't you can't listen to me said the people

Who are dying for this revolution to free them

The cities are burning / the skies are on fire

With this information to shut down the system

Shut Down The System
