Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Born in troubled water
Every stroke is war
They drowned the ones before us
But we'll make it to shore
Message in this hammer
Is coming down on you
Message in a gun
Aiming at your head
Message in this hammer
Coming down on you
Message in this gun
Aiming at your head
[Verse 2]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
[Verse 3]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
[Verse 4]
I have seen the future
In the future, we won
We have been reborn
To build, we must destroy
[Verse 5]
I don't want peace, oh
We don't talk till we tire
I won't say please, oh
We fight fire with fire
We are the people
We won't sit and be quiet
Government devils
All of them liars, all of them liars, all of them
[Verse 6]
(Thief) President
(Thief) Governor
(Thief) Senator
(Thief) Commissioner
(Thief) Ambassador
(Thief) Minister
(Thief) Treasurer
(Thief) Advisor
(Thief) Judge-o
(Thief) Army
(Thief) Policeman
(Thief) SARS-o
(Thief) Inspector
(Thief) General
(Thief) All of them murderers
[Verse 7]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
[Verse 8]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
[Verse 9]
Message in a hammer
Burning down the order
Tearing down the walls for a new day
New breath
I can feel the tide turn
Let the fire pour
Can't you see it's time for a new day?
New dawn, new dawn
[Verse 10]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
[Verse 11]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
[Verse 12]
You can beat me, shoot me, kill me, throw me in jail
You can strip me, use me, abuse me till nothing remain
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
We won't take it kindly, take it smiling
(All of them murderers)
