[Verse 1]
Mending broken boot straps
Marching to the sea
Marred by myths of meritocracy
They honor the exceptions
That only prove the rule
Our shambled lives are shadowed by a cruel silence
[Pre-Chorus]
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
[Chorus]
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
[Verse 2]
Sweating in the swеlter
Swallowing our rage
Break our backs for half a living wagе
We've watched this film too often
Stop waiting for a twist
Our calls for change
Are always answered with violence
[Pre-Chorus]
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
[Chorus]
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Knowing nothing has to be like this
Knowing nothing has to be like this
Knowing nothing has to be like this
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
[Outro]
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
