Joshua James Hunt – Turn It All Around lyrics

Forty miles
It's a club crawl
On the radio
What are they singing now
If we're free then
Why aren't we singing it
If it's me then
They should be bringing it
Be with you girl
That's what I wanna do
I'm going to make it
Because you want me to
They can twist it
But they're missing it
What we really need
I made a list and
They better read it
The crooked government
They will concede and
We'll take the power back
One two
One two
What does that mean to you

They built it up
Now they're tearing it down
Time to turn it all around
They raised you up
Now they're dumbing you down
It's time to turn it all around
They set you free
Now they're breaking your knees
Time to turn it all around
They let you vote
Now it's their little joke
Time to turn it all around

I can feel it building
The stirring in the crowd
Coming to their senses
Refusing to bow down
To corruption that holds power
And takes their rights away
Not distant is the hour
Fast approaching is the day
When overthrow will happen
As it sometimes must
The founders said correctly
And still in God we trust
It’s not a fight for wealth
But for the freedom of the mind
For the press to print correctly
For the rich to stand in line
For the right to hold our weapons
That keep us safe from crime
For the right to mass assembly
When the state gets out of line
For the right to share equality
With freedom of our speech
With the right to protest without fear
Police brutality
No laws designed for profit
No tax without consent
No sentence without trial
No proof means innocent
Wake up your term has ended
We're throwing off your chains
We'll live our lives in freedom
Or die in freedom's name

They built it up
Now they're tearing it down
Time to turn it all around
They raised you up
Now they're dumbing you down
It's time to turn it all around
They set you free
Now they're breaking your knees
Time to turn it all around
They let you vote
Now it's their little joke
Time to turn it all around
