Verse 1
Children get sick, they see their parents die
So you can stay, in your ivory tower
For them it's their life, for you just a lie
You spread your wings, but want them to cower
We will pull through
Even if you don't want us to
Chorus 1
I don't wanna die so that you can keep your status
Fuck your institution and this whole apparatus
Verse 2
A burning desire, a remnant of your failures
Bloated sense of pride, fueling your ego
We are no pawns, you are no savior
We can't breathe, but we will pull through
Even if you don't want us to
Chorus 2
I don't wanna die so that you can keep your status
Fuck your institution and this whole apparatus
Bridge
We'll raise our fists in defiance
We'll raise our fists in defiance
We'll raise our fists in defiance
We'll raise them even if you don't want us to
Chorus 3
I don't wanna die so that you can keep your status
Fuck your institution and this whole apparatus
