[Chorus 1] Everybody’s running wild and everybody’s running fast They don’t know the things I’ve seen and they don’t know that things won’t last Longer than commercial breaks or ads they see on magazines When you said you’d run away, I wanted to run away with you [Verse 1] Cool kids rocking Filas drive by streets where they film filler films There’s a burning candle on the spot where a young boy was killed The newspaper headline’s about the five thousand peso bill But who gives a fuck? Everyone’s out here watching television [Verse 2] Shut down media companies and Ressa goes to court again Gold Olympic medal, twenty-nine dead for defending land And Jadine was a hoax. who will you vote for in this election? Can’t you take a joke? Why is this generation so serious? [Verse 3] Veto agriculture bills, children working in quarantine Macho porn, One of the Boys, it’s Milo vs Ovaltine 14 years in Martial Law, 500 since Christianity But who’s keeping score? We’re out here bashing our Miss Universes [Verse 4] SOGIE Equality Bill, seek justice for Cebu7 Simeon Dumdum Jr. and his poem about privilege The Presidential Pardon, who can argue for those choked to death? If no one’s here to speak, should it be me, should it be you, should it be them? [Bridge] Don’t cry I told you this wasn’t worth the fight If someone has to die tonight I’m gonna be a hero [Verse 5] These men, they aren’t prophets and They’re only here to profit and They said that this was God’s land So why’re they breaking promises? It’s the fight for my future, but I would rather give it up When you said you’d leave this country I wanted to run away with you [Chorus 2] Everybody’s running wild and everybody’s running fast They don’t know what they’ll see but they know this shouldn’t be their last It’s the fight of our futures, but I would rather give it up When you said you’d leave this country, I wanted to run away
