Run for Your Life
They say in life, everybody's free
But you'll take that back if you ever seen me
Cos I've seen so much pain, been through snow and through rain
And I'm still not convinced by this money or all this gain
Is my loss and I don't come across when the KKK go and burn that cross
I say, won't you set me free, won't you
Run for your life before you lose it
Run for your life before you lose it
Now you might say that it just aint true
So come over here I've got news for you boy
You can work all night you can sleep all day
You can even go on holidays and spend all your precious pay
On this planet, we're just leasing space
When the contracts out, you'll wipe that smile from your face
I say, won't you set me free, won't you
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're living on a time bomb
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're driving with your brakes on
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that no one gives a damned about you
Run for your life before you lose it
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
I say, won't you set me free, won't you
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're living on a time bomb
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're driving with your brakes on
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that no one gives a damned about you
Run for your life before you lose it
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
But you'll take that back if you ever seen me
Cos I've seen so much pain, been through snow and through rain
And I'm still not convinced by this money or all this gain
Is my loss and I don't come across when the KKK go and burn that cross
I say, won't you set me free, won't you
Run for your life before you lose it
Run for your life before you lose it
Now you might say that it just aint true
So come over here I've got news for you boy
You can work all night you can sleep all day
You can even go on holidays and spend all your precious pay
On this planet, we're just leasing space
When the contracts out, you'll wipe that smile from your face
I say, won't you set me free, won't you
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're living on a time bomb
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're driving with your brakes on
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that no one gives a damned about you
Run for your life before you lose it
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
I say, won't you set me free, won't you
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're living on a time bomb
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that you're driving with your brakes on
Run for your life before you lose it
Can't you see that no one gives a damned about you
Run for your life before you lose it
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
You've gotta run now
