Tom Morello - I Am Not Yours To Command Lyrics

Tom Morello Lyrics

"I Am Not Yours To Command"

They push you forward, they pull you back
They beckon sweetly each time around the track
You need not repeat the plan
I am not yours to command

Battlefield, bygone days
Soldier kneels beside his brother's grave
Eyes the captain spade in hand
I am not yours to command
I am not yours to command

A note is passed in cell block H
Ten volunteers history could not erase
Warden denies every demand
But I am not yours to command

Callous whispers, crooked words
You're disappointed, yeah, I heard
I shook the hand of every fan
I am not yours to command
I am not yours to command

Maybe you can save me, maybe you can't
Maybe you can liberate me, nah, I'll take care of that
"Perhaps it's time we made a stand"
Said the coyote to the lamb
As they went over the barricade hand in hand, yeah
Perhaps this time, you'll understand
I am not yours to command
I am not yours to command, nah
I am not yours to command
