Never one to be held back or held down   I'd write my name so the king could see   I will follow the true declaration   And find some hope in what mankind could be      I've worked so hard   Let my deeds be my witness   And let my words flow through everyone   When free men stand   Against what would bind them   No hope for tyrants   We will over come      Do not obey   No masters now   Do not obey   Not subjects   We have held on for so long   Do not obey      Talking heads tell the masses the story   They shape the lie in the schools and the TV   Our fathers work and intent is unwritten   By the lazy who don't know they're free      I hear the story and it makes me determined   To spread the word that we can't just lay down   What we read and we see drawn before us   Is a lie and we must hold our ground      It's found in you   It's found in me   From birth to stone   We remain free as always
