Lyrics
I'm sick of the people that are running this place
I'm sick of the lies that get shoved in my face
The greedy and powerful put themselves first
And say things are better but we all know it's worse
I keep holding on
In a World gone wrong
When all hope is gone
I'll keep holding on
I'm tired of the grief that I get everyday
I'm tired of the hurtful things that people say
And all that surrounds me is cruel and cold
Spinning and spiraling out of control
I keep holding on
In a World gone wrong
When all hope is gone
I'll keep holding on
When all hope is gone
I'll keep holding on
No more boot on my neck no more face in the ground
I'm coming out swinging and you're going down
