Oh boys in high places take us for a ride
I think, where are we going now
And my Mothers says, son don't be mad
You've got enough just worring 'bout yourself
Cause when the fire hits you, when the fire hits
you
Will you touch the fire, will you run away
Hang on, it's all you know
Oh the liars wish their mouths of steel
Bring the people to their knees
And my Father says, son you better take it slow
Don't be fooled by what you see
Cause when the fire hits you. When the fire hits
you
Will you touch the fire, will you run away
Hang on, it's all you know
I've seen good men, Ive believed in them so
But when teh heat came the good men burned
away
You tell me it's freedom and peace that you want
Well, soon enough we'll see, soon enough we'll
see
'Cause when the fire hits you, when the fire hits
you
Will you touch the fire, will you run away
Hang on, It's all we know
Hang on, It's all we know
Hang on, It's all we know
Hang on, It's all we know
