Black Flag-Rise Above & American Waste

Black Flag - Rise Above Lyrics

jealous cowards try to control
rise above
we're gonna rise above
they distort what we say
rise above
we're gonna rise above
try and stop what we do
rise above
when they can't do it themselves

we are tired of your abuse
try to stop us it's no use

society's arms of control
rise above
we're gonna rise above
think they're smart
can't think for themselves
rise above
we're gonna rise above
laugh at us
behind our backs
i find satisfaction
in what they lack

we are tired of your abuse
try to stop us it's no use

we are born with a chance
rise above
we're gonna rise above
i am gonna have my chance
rise above
we're gonna rise above

we are tired of your abuse
try to stop us it's no use

rise above
rise above
rise above
we're gonna rise above
we're gonna rise above
we're gonna rise above

Black Flag - American Waste Lyrics

The worlds got some plans for me, courthouse, jails and factories.
Black and whites on the street, for me, for me.
I see my place in American waste, faced with choices I can't take.
American waste, American waste, on my own, I see my fate.

On my own, on the way out, small enough its all spelled out.
I know what I see what I want the doors are closed in this maze.
I see my place in American waste, faced with choices I can't take.
American waste, American waste, on my own I see my fate.

Boredom looks for its kicks Going down on death.
I see it coming, I can't do anything.

Not for me, not for me, I won't end up in the heap.
I want out, I'm free, burning, burning.
I see my place in American waste, faced with choices I can't take.
American waste American waste On my own I see my fate.
