no money man is gonna carry us
no corporate hand is gonna bury us
if we had convictions we´d be dangerous

don´t want their creed to guide our consequence
don´t want their shadow casting darkness on our future tense
they´d make a killing but we´re making sense

with the last great act of defiance
to preserve us well
heaven or hell we´re gonna know we left our mark

can´t live no life that pushes thorny crowns
no new york minute´s gonna tear us down
you and me, hell we´re the guts of this town

with the last great act of defiance
to preserve us well
heaven or hell we´re gonna know we left our mark

don´t want no heart attack like my old man
53 and a policy to help my mother live
they never paid him back for working long
company man but they could give a damn
for what he had to give

another evening on the stockton road
dreamin´ plans for the greatest story ever told
we´ll spit on all the cards they haven´t shown

with the last great act of defiance
to preserve us well
heaven or hell we´re gonna know we left our mark
