Fired Up

Fired up ain't gonna take it no more

Tied up ain't gonna take it no more

You say cool down, we say step down

You're breaking my mother's heart

Fired up ain't gonna take it no more

Tied up ain't gonna take it no more

You say cool down, we say step down

You're breaking my mother's heart

Children need schools more than they need jails

That's where our society fails

First seven years creates the child's foundation

Mandatory for a healthy nation

How could we forget that the children come first

We left them alone and they died of thirst

Mothers and fathers confused and forlorn

When the children are missing there's something wrong

Can't just focus on kids with wealth

Can't pick and choose who gets the health care

Take an honest look at the great divide

Looks dangerously similar to genocide

Fired up ain't gonna take it no more

Tied up ain't gonna take it no more

You say cool down, we say step down

You're breaking my mother's heart

Ain't gonna take it no more

Tied up ain't gonna take it no more

You say cool down, we say step down

You break another mother's heart
