[Verse 1]
You sold the trust for a camera grin
Took the whole house and let the cracks move in
Point at the smoke, but you lit the flame
Now every lie got a family name
You talk too big with a paper throne
Hands in the jar, but you act alone
Folks out here payin’ for the games you play
While you spin that mouth and you walk away
[Pre-Chorus]
We see the stain
We know the scheme
Blue tie out front
While you run the machine
We hear the crowd
We feel the break
Every false promise
Leaves more hurt to take
[Chorus]
Fuck that power, fuck that lie
We won’t bow, we won’t hide
Not our future, not your throne
Hands off now, let people own
Fuck that power, fuck that lie
We won’t bow, we won’t hide
Not our future, not your throne
Hands off now, let people own
[Verse 2]
You feed on fear like it’s sweet champagne
Turn every hard day into your campaign
But the kids still sleep and the bills still rise
And the same old greed stays in different ties
We want clean hands, we want truth in view
We want less of you and more for you
Every busted wheel got a line to draw
And every loud excuse still falls on the law
[Pre-Chorus]
We see the stain
We know the scheme
Blue tie out front
While you run the machine
We hear the crowd
We feel the break
Every false promise
Leaves more hurt to take
[Chorus]
Fuck that power, fuck that lie
We won’t bow, we won’t hide
Not our future, not your throne
Hands off now, let people own
Fuck that power, fuck that lie
We won’t bow, we won’t hide
Not our future, not your throne
Hands off now, let people own
[Bridge]
No more poison in the schoolyard
No more fear for the everyday
No more golden mask, no more cheap applause
We’re done with the wreckage, done with the cost
[Final Chorus]
Fuck that power, fuck that lie
We won’t bow, we won’t hide
Not our future, not your throne
Hands off now, let people own
Fuck that power, fuck that lie
We won’t bow, we won’t hide
Not our future, not your throne
Hands off now, let people own
