Can you feel the tension rise? Cut your ties
With those who keep on pullin' the wool over your eyes
Don't hear dem pack of lies! Cut your ties
For now, you see the schemes they try to disguise
Touch the skies, cut your ties
For now the scales have just fallen from your eyes
If you wanna get wise, cut your ties
For they don't care about the sufferer's cries
For they want more than your silver and gold
Free your soul from the dead hands of downpressors
How long will we roam under Babylon hold?
Emotionally scrambled by smoke and mirrors
We cannot idly stand by and hope for a miracle (miracle, miracle)
Would you let dem put into your minds
That your vision is chimerical (chimerical, chimerical)
Can you feel the tension rise? Cut your ties
With those who keep on pullin' the wool over your eyes
Don't hear dem pack of lies, cut your ties
For they don't care about the sufferer's cries
Who's really pulling the strings?
Let's do your choice, you can be the master of your life
Tell me who's really clipping your wings?
Let's raise your voice, never let dem trample on your rights
Let's fly away from overconsuming society
Don't stay dem partner in crime
You can live another way, you can bloom in sobriety
Build your own paradise
Pyromaniac firemen
Pyromaniac firemen
Pyromaniac firemen
Unleash demoniac violence
Would you remain a bystander? (Stander)
While dem spreading propaganda (propaganda)
Would you remain by stander
Dem acting with no candor!
Can you feel the tension rise? Cut your ties
With those who keep on pullin' the wool over your eyes
Don't hear dem pack of lies, cut your ties
For now, you see the schemes they try to disguise
Touch the skies, cut your ties
For now the scales have just fallen from your eyes
If you wanna get wise, cut your ties see
For they don't care about the sufferer's cries (cries, cries)
Cut your ties
Cut your ties, ties
Pyromaniac firemen
Pyromaniac firemen
No longer swallow dem shallow words
Won't be governed by gallows birds
