lyrics

Coal heart bound
Hear it screaming through the TV and the radio sound
Said coal heart bound
Hear it screaming through the TV and the radio sound
Said I don’t want to fight forever
Waging battle in the city of American sinners
Said oh feel it burn on down Said oh hear the rising up now

Coal heart bound
Hear it screaming through the TV and the radio sound
Said coal heart bound
Hear it screaming through the TV and the radio sound
Said I don’t want to fight forever
They’re tearing through the town like a flooded river
Stealing housing in the city through the corporate winter
Said oh feel it burn on down Said oh hear the rising up now
Said oh feel it burn on down Said oh hear the rising up now
Hear the rising up now Hear the rising up now

Cause we’ve been received and we’ve been detained
I see my sister hold her head up she won’t break down to the shame
In my America there’s still a dream
We’re gonna be set free we’re gonna be set free

I used to walk through this city hold my hands up to the sky
I could hear that rhythm beating like a heartbeat like the tide
Now the music is leaving though the song we can keep
All the martyrs of Saint Francis getting kicked off of the streets


And they’ve been cut down and they’ve been detained
Immigrants and farmers they won’t break down to the shame
In my America there’s still a dream
We’re gonna be set free we’re gonna be set free
We’re gonna be set free We’re gonna be set free


Said I don’t want to fight forever
Waging battle in the city of American sinners
Said oh feel it burn on down Said oh hear the rising up now
Said oh feel it burn on down Said oh hear the rising up now
Hear the rising up now Hear the rising up now
