"Brick By Brick" lyrics

"Brick By Brick"

Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick

Building walls in a concrete jungle
Trying to keep all the animals out
Now you got us trapped in with you
We're the ones tearing it down
Change ain't looking for friends
No, change is the sound we dance to
Our lives like the hands of time
No one gets out alive

Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
They're taking your freedom away

When I was much younger my father told me
Never trust the government and fuck the police
Years go by, it's the same old things
Liberty and justice strangled by greed
Mass surveillance, they watch you everywhere
Change is the sound we dance to
Make sure you pay, make sure you obey
No one gets out alive

Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
They're taking your freedom away

Not enough to make ends meet
Gotta keep my boots on the ground
I keep running in circles
They keep beating me down

Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
They're taking your freedom away
