BC Jean - Not My Revolution lyrics

{Verse 1: Itch} I'm a prowling, snarling, opinionated brat Just a little fella, but the leader of the pack You can't sensor me, I will never shut up Attitude like a virgin, I don't give a f*ck No I won't be shaped and I won't be moulded When I'm revolting, well, you're revolted So, who's to say which way's suitable I may not be pretty but god damn I'm beautiful If I waste my time, singing love songs If that's the line drawn, I'm on the side that's wrong My heart is open, tapping this vibration Living my life like it's a celebration I'm living free now, painting up the walls Dancing in the street, grabbing life by the balls If I can't dream beyond the midnight bells Well you call it freedom, I call it something else. {Chorus: BC Jean} 'Cause If I can't dance, if I can't sing Then I got-got no contribution 'Cause if I can't laugh, if I can't love Then I can't-can't find no solution Then it's not my revolution (I'm still hear dancing to the beat of my heart) No it's not my revolution (Hoping I can make a fire out of the spark) No {Verse 2: Itch} It's not like I was born with this rage See, I was just a street kid who was small for his age Sleeping amongst the rats and the roaches Homeless in the alleyway when the shadow approaches I met some punks who took me to their squat Said I could stay with them in the room with the rot I heard the music for the first time, it blew my mind It spoke to me, man, I studied every line I swapped a bag of green for an acoustic guitar Wrote a bunch of songs and screamed them all from my heart Couldn't get a gig so we opened up our own squats Wheeled in the sound system then changed all the locks No, I never let anything get in my way I came from nothing and I'm solid as a rock to this day So, do you really think that you can bring me down I'll be the last man standing my ground {Chorus: BC Jean} 'Cause If I can't dance, if I can't sing Then I got-got no contribution 'Cause if I can't laugh, if I can't love Then I can't-can't find no solution Then it's not my revolution (I'm still hear dancing to the beat of my heart) No it's not my revolution (Hoping I can make a fire out of the spark) If I can't stop outside the line (That's all we need to bring us out of the darkness) No Then it's not my revolution (No, no, no it's not) It's not my revolution Not my revolution It's not my revolution Not my revolution We can still dare to live, love and dream If we believe that we got to fight to be free So if I can't dance and fall in love Then it ain't what I'm fighting for and it never was {Chorus: } 'Cause If I can't dance (If I can't dance) If I can't sing (If I can't sing) Then I got-got no contribution (Then what's my contribution) 'Cause if I can't laugh (Yeah) If I can't love (Trust) Then I can't-can't find no solution (No solution) Then it's not my revolution (I'm still here dancing to the beat of my heart) No it's not my revolution (Trying to make a fire out of the spark) If I can't stop outside the line (That's all we need to bring us out of the darkness) No Then it's not my revolution (No, not, no it's not, no) (Not my revolution) I live this, I breathe this (No, it's not my revolution) You can't hold me back, I came from nothing (No, it's not my revolution) I dare you to shut me up, this fire still burns (No, it's not my revolution) Shine your light so bright Yeah, forget the fear
