Modern people
Want to live in a
modern life
Though they trick and take
Rip and rape
Destroy the things that are
right
They came to my town
I was a boy
Just about five
Today we demonstrate,
litigate
Even show our might
Breakaway
I wanna know just what it is
We
gotta breakaway
Race colour
She was a right wing
I was a left
Together we're strong
We will crucify
Just plain denied
To practice out our rights
Those were the bad days
Today we're rich
And we have kids
But they didn't
learn
Through all the hurt
The meaning of our might
Breakaway
I wanna
know just what it is
We gotta breakaway
You know it's in our past
We had to
sacrifice a lot
It was give and take
For the human race
Just learning right from
wrong
They put it in our minds
And now they're putting it in your
So learn to
fight the hate
For the human race
Or we're lost
Breakaway breakaway
breakaway
Breakaway
We gotta breakaway
Breakaway
I wanna know just
what it is
We gotta breakaway
