Lyrics:

Only two roads out of this town
Break free or they’ll break you down
Did the blood stain your crown
When you carried us away

Young bodies buried in the ground
Will you finally listen now?
(To) generations crying out
Done waiting for the day

Can you feel the heat
Underneath your feet
Rising on the land, stirring in the street
Waking from a hundred years of sleep
A hundred years of sleep
A hundred years of sleep

There’s a strange light in our eyes
And we’re done with compromise
All your silence and your lies
Can’t take this truth away
So what’s it gonna take

Can you feel the heat
Underneath your feet
Rising on the land, stirring in the street
Waking from a hundred years of sleep
A hundred years of sleep
A hundred years of sleep

A whole life lived complacent
Everything given, wasted
Taking taking taking
Hands are never clean
It’s time for returning
The seventh fire’s burning
Painted skies you’ve never seen…never seen

Can you feel the heat
Underneath your feet
Rising on the land, stirring in the street
Waking from a hundred years of sleep
A hundred years of sleep
A hundred years of sleep
