Down in the dust, our feet are cold and tired We've built your walls, we've lit your fucking fires We've even fought your wars, guarded your lives Greased your pipes, we made and laid your wires
Heavy with rust our shoulders bear your loads Plumb out of trust, too many lives hewed low You ask for much, but give burdens untold It's time to rush, it's time to dump this load
Raise your fists up to the sky Be yourself be more before you die Take a stand from your proclivity and march away from your captivity
Down in the dust, our feet are cold and tired We've built your walls, we've lit your fucking fires We've even fought your wars, guarded your lives Greased your pipes, we made and laid your wires
Raise your fists up to the sky Be yourself be more before you die Take a stand from your proclivity and march away from your captivity
