Guarded, despised, backs to the wall, robbed of the chance we deserve Told that we're lucky to be here at all, our only role is to serve Prisoners from birth, we're denied evry right, to a free life of our own Non-one can stop us, we'll stand up and fight, lords of the Tenement Zone Kickin'an'screamin' I came to this life I had to fight just to survive Live by your wits or die by the knife In the back room of an alleyway dive
Smell of freedom in the air chaos rages everywhere See the victims running scared fighting for their lives, yeah We've exposed the lives you lied now it's us that turns the tide We no longer have to hide breakout to the other side
Guard dogs, guns, electrified wire, cameras watch my every move Zombie-like faces watch me from the tower, guilty with no need of proof I'll find a way out I'll go it alone, not gonna fall for their lies No-one can stop me from making my run, crush anybody who tries
Nothing for nothing an' no-one goes free Dog eat dog everyone for themselves Live with the fact that we're too blind to see There's no escape from this dangerous hell
Smell of freedom in the air chaos rages everywhere See the victims running scared fighting for their lives, yeah We've exposed the lives you lied now it's us that turns the tide We no longer have to hide breakout to the other side
