You can try to run and hide
They'll always find you
No matter what you do
No matter where you go
They'll find you
Chorus:
You can't run all your life
You've got to make a stand
No more running, no more games
You aren't playing Cat and Mouse
No, no more games, turn around
Fight, Fight, Fight the powers that be
Turn around and fight people
Fight, Fight, Fight the powers that be
They're the powers that be
They're omniscient
They're omnipotent
They're everywhere
You can't see them
You can't hear them
you can't feel them
But they're there
All around you
(Repeat Chorus:)
They'll try and put you down
They'll try and hold you back
They'll call you delinquent scum
They'll call you ignorant
But don't let them get you down
Never listen to them
Train your mind, not just your body
And fight the powers that be
(Repeat Chorus Twice:)
Fight the powers that be
