They wanted religious freedom men with major smarts
Independent thinkers women for the arts
Indentured servants aiming for the top
Pioneers and leaders a thirst that wouldn't stop
But tyranny came over and tried to take us down
We the people rose as one and stood up
Against the crown
Fundamental orders freedom of the press
Patriots or loyals leading to unrest
Heavy handed taxes more troops to make it so
Stealing by oppression a prelude to revolt
But tyranny came over and tried to take us down
We the people rose as one and stood up
Against the crown
Then came the shots in Boston and many English acts
The cry rang out among us there was no turning back
But tyranny came over and tried to take us down
We the people rose as one and stood up
Against the crown
But tyranny came over and tried to take us down
We the people rose as one and stood up
Against the crown
But tyranny came over and tried to take us down
We the people rose as one and stood up
Against the crown
But tyranny came over and tried to take us down
We the people rose as one and stood up
Against the crown
