The Cro-Mags
"We Gotta Know"


Strugglin in the streets just trying to survive Searchin for the truth is just keepin us alive Gotta break these shackles gotta break these chains Said the only way we'll do it is if we use our brains Said there's gotta be some meaning to the purpose of life I know there must be more than the struggle and strife Cause I'm looking for the answers and I need a clue Cause my mind's so disturbed now what do I do? Notice everywhere there's mass confusion and packs of lies We gotta know! We're starin down our enemies in the eyes We gotta know! These are the days of the cheaters and the cheated We gotta know! But we're not gonna bend you know we won't be defeated We gotta know! Cause my minds so disturbed now What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? This planet's turnin into a hell And I figured out that things don't really look too well Reactions coming they're already starting to show But the question is who'll go with the flow You know there's gonna... be a fight Cause somebody's always tryin to keep ya... from doing the right There's always gonna be somebody comin no matter where you go So now you know why we gotta know
