Lyrics:
It’s time, alright!
For us to stand up and fight
It’s time, alright!
To set the story straight tonight
I look around today
I see a messed up place
This world we live in
Doesn’t have a clue
About the things you say
Decisions that get made
They affect our lives so
Where’s our try, yeah!
It’s time, alright!
For us to stand up and fight
It’s time, alright!
To set the story straight tonight
You think we waste our time
Leading worthless lives
At school and home
We’ve done nothing wrong
You judge u son what we wear
And how we cut our hair
But we’re the future
So it’s up to you, yeah!
It’s up to you, oh yeah!
It’s time, alright!
For us to stand up and fight
It’s time, alright!
To set the story straight tonight
You’d rather run away
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
