With my face smashed against the concrete I kinda find it hard to speak The inevitable freedom of oppression And I stay down Kneel down to our masters That left us to die We'll get our taste of freedom Licking the pavement clean Obey the truth or suffer the consequence Smilling face with teeth kicked in We nod and we move along We nod as we sing along Kneel down to our gods That left us to die We'll get our taste of freedom Licking the pavement clean
Give praise to our opportunities Give thanx with our hands tied We laugh when patted on the back And then we died And I still believe every word - And all the great heroes And I still believe every word - And all the grand promises And I still believe every word - And all the stunning progress And I still believe every word - And still I stay down I have nothing So I get my head kicked in Won't make a sound Thanx again
