For forty-two years
We've been living
In a shadow
A frozen picture
One they say is of tomorrow

I don't want to see
Any scenes in their movie
I just want to be
Involved in the victory

For so long
We have seen
All the writing on the wall
Seems to some
Before too long
Something will fall

After all this time
Do we ever get the real picture
I'm not sure myself
I'm just waiting for the leader

There are people who care
And they're a pleasure to see
I don't want to be butchered

Set free the future
And let us live our lives
Set free the future
We don't want to be
Involved in a fight

Set free
Set free the future
Set free
Set free the future
