| Chorus: Fired up aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You're breaking my mother's heart Fired up aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You're breaking my mother's heart Children need schools more than they need jails That's where our society fails First 7 years creates the child's foundation Mandatory for a healthy nation Fired up aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You're breaking my mother's heart How could we forget that the children come first We left them alone and they died of thirst Mothers and fathers confused and forlorn When the children are missing there's something wrong Fired up aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You're breaking my mother's heart Cant just focus on kids with wealth Cant pick and choose who gets the health care Take an honest look at the great divide Looks dangerously similar to genocide Fired up aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You're breaking my mother's heart Fired up aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You're breaking my mother's heart Aint gonna take it no more Tied up aint gonna take it no more You say cool down, we say step down You break another mother's heart Copyright 1999 Hereford Music (ASCAP) |
