Been in the system for 22 years
It's taken 22 years just to get me where I am today
But I'm so glad I came
Sidney always told me I was shy but now she says I lost my filter
Not an ounce of shame
From the shy guy to the wise guy, but I know I like it better now

If you want to start a revolution
Like I want to start a revolution
Say, "Hey!"

Sometimes I feel like am standing still
But I'm standing still and that's more than many men can say
Silence from their graves
We can work together, push the boundaries back, eliminate the borders
Turn up your speakers
Woofers and tweeters
Beneath the Sheets is... Ready for war!

If you want to start a revolution
Like I want to start a revolution
Say, "Hey!"
And put your pistols to the sky and say,
"We ain't taking no more."

I never knew where daddy came from
So I guess I'll never know my heritage
He wants me to rule this kingdom but I,
I have no leadership qualities
I never knew where momma came from
So I guess I'll never know my heritage
She wants me to rule this kingdom but I,
I have no leadership qualities
