See all the columns, people who pay in
Their money to hear you play, seventy songs so far
The public relate to the prophet the critics upraise
Your status has grown and now wherever you go
What you are you can see in the faces of those
Whose political drug can be found in the words that you sing
Uptown martyrs, say it for me
Uptown martyrs, that's what I be
So far, we're going far, I can say
If you stay, stick with me I will show you the way
You're well aware, you're not alone, nor are you mean
Yet people draw comparisons with you and James Dean
It's revelation time, they've come for their king
You're giving your everything being yourself
And everyone's trying to see someone else
You're the one to watch, yeah, you're a name
Uptown martyrs, say it for me
Uptown martyrs, that's what I be
So far, we're going far, I can say
If you stay, stick with me I will show you the way
Uptown martyrs, say it for me
Uptown martyrs, that's what I be
There are nights on your own
In some lonely bars
When reflecting ideals of all your public
Say you are
And the time they're wasting on the wrong track
Someday you know they'll put a knife
Into your back
And the way the world is in need of a change
If people only tried to get it in their brains
It's all for all, an' all of us for one
And solidarity's the only social gun
