I'm Not Going
I'm not going - No, no not me
How can you run from a tragedy
I'm not going - No, no not me
So what if you got a Ph.D.
Take a look around - You'll end up in the ground
Cut in the prime of youth, slain 'cause you tell the truth
It's a mess to confess, to be young and free
Unless you hold on to your dignity
The days are short - the night are long
In the field with the beast - I do not belong
I'm sticking to my attitude
Don't take me for a common dude
Stripped from home I won't allow
The vote's any second now
I'm not going - they want to hear
Yes, yes take me
Protect me from this - my family I'll miss
It's not for me to fight
Those that I don't know
I love who I am - I'll change if I go
Corruption's in my neighborhood
The men in blue, don't think I'm good
I dress like any other guy
The question is to live of die
I can tell we're in hell, dipped in genocide
No shelter for those, to run and hide
Protest those who have authority
Death's not a threat, that's made by me
My brother's on the front line
My sister's on the front line
To volunteer your self pride
Can bring you back
A changed mind
How can you run from a tragedy
I'm not going - No, no not me
So what if you got a Ph.D.
Take a look around - You'll end up in the ground
Cut in the prime of youth, slain 'cause you tell the truth
It's a mess to confess, to be young and free
Unless you hold on to your dignity
The days are short - the night are long
In the field with the beast - I do not belong
I'm sticking to my attitude
Don't take me for a common dude
Stripped from home I won't allow
The vote's any second now
I'm not going - they want to hear
Yes, yes take me
Protect me from this - my family I'll miss
It's not for me to fight
Those that I don't know
I love who I am - I'll change if I go
Corruption's in my neighborhood
The men in blue, don't think I'm good
I dress like any other guy
The question is to live of die
I can tell we're in hell, dipped in genocide
No shelter for those, to run and hide
Protest those who have authority
Death's not a threat, that's made by me
My brother's on the front line
My sister's on the front line
To volunteer your self pride
Can bring you back
A changed mind
