Anti-Flag - Born to Run lyrics
[Anti-Flag - Born to Run lyrics]
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from a cop
Born to run from a border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog
You fucking snake
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from a cop
Born to run from a border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog
You fucking snake
I curse the myth we’re fed
I calculate the dead
I know the mission hasn’t
Been accomplished yet
15 years of war means 100 more
And that may be where we only begin
I heard Katrina cry i saw the law denied
I choked and suffocated on the
Smoke ‘em out liе
Maybe the answers wе need won’t
Be sold on a screen
Is it the opioids? The CIA?
The CNN? The Coca Cola in our veins?
No one could see disaster staring
Right in our face?
Is it the air we breathe?
The Flint water stream? The next iPhone?
Or the Fair Trade coffee?
You gotta start somewhere
If you wanna get nowhere
I won’t believe the lie
I can’t concede our peace
I know that no righteous words
Have been written to decease
Crash and burn, toss and turn
Somehow we were never prepared
I heard Katrina cry i saw the law denied
I choked and suffocated on the
Smoke ‘em out lie
Maybe the answers we need won’t
Be sold on a screen
Is it the opioids? The CIA?
The CNN? The Coca Cola in our veins?
No one could see disaster staring
Right in our face? Is it the air we breathe?
The Flint water stream? The next iPhone?
Or the Fair Trade coffee?
You gotta start somewhere
If you wanna get nowhere
Action not reaction as the world decays
As we scream out loud like
Hell in civil war charades
Stand together as one in the acid rain
Kneel at our bed sides, speak to God
You pray
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from a cop
Born to run from a border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog
You fucking snake
Born to run from the order
Born to run from a cop
Born to run from a border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog
You fucking snake
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from a cop
Born to run from a border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog
You fucking snake
I curse the myth we’re fed
I calculate the dead
I know the mission hasn’t
Been accomplished yet
15 years of war means 100 more
And that may be where we only begin
I heard Katrina cry i saw the law denied
I choked and suffocated on the
Smoke ‘em out liе
Maybe the answers wе need won’t
