Not Gonna Take It Lyrics

It's ok to scream out loud that way.
You feel so helpless
and no one seems to care.
They say they do, but when you need a friend.
It's not their problem, they just don't understand.

Now's the time to express your self
let them know you're no fool
cause they must listen to the rage,
that says I'm not gonna take it anymore.

Despair remains the greatest pain today.
Fear and ignorance rule our every move.
They speak of change, revolution and reform.
No matter what they say at best it stays the same.

So they try to dissect us now blaming all that don't agree
using words of hate and blame
while they steal and cheat and lie and hurt and kill.

They don't want you, they don't need you.
They don't care about anyone except themselves
and their way of life.
