Cro-Mags We Gotta Know lyrics

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
