Lyrics

Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, run until the rising sun
 It used to be stupid to say "revolution"
 We way over used it, daze and confusion
 Looped it out, rallies and felt a deep therapy
 Put it on TV to sell a Jeep Cherokee
 But invariably, seekers seek clarity
 Secrets leak, people retweet like a parakeet
 Used to be no sign of hope, now it's show time
 Compassion as fast as you can, go time
 What are we running from? What are we running for?
 Hungry gun punishment or better metaphors?
 Burma to Tucson, the movement is medicine
 Turn our potential into kinetic force
 With courage, we set a course where freedom doesn't ring, it roars
 Follow the drinking gourds, guided by an inner north
 We're not running to-and-fro, we know what we're running for
 We're not running to-and-fro, we know what we're running for
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, run until the rising sun
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 We run to the horizon line, not confusing finish lines
 Call you to witless ministers, it's "Can I get a witness?" time
 Split these rhymes like picket signs, Philistines in skittish minds
 For confined refugees slaving in pantomime
 In packing plants out of sight, out of mind, it's business time
 If we don't dig it, let's undermine it
 We run from the dark, an unbearable lightness into defiance
 Where our sun shines the brightest
 The revolution has begun
 The clever youth that had to run
 'Cause they were shooting at 'em
 Guns from every roof the flags were hung
 As shards of glass were flung
 The women came and added on
 To what they said, no one could ever, ever do, and had been done
 And they inspired us from Babylon to Avalon
 We saw that they were headed somewhere fast and tried to tag along
 Like a vagabond, so we battle on
 All over the map, it's time to sprint
 It's a decathlon, everybody, c'mon
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, the revolution has begun
 Run, run, run, run, run until the rising sun
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
 If the sun will rise even one more time, so will I, so will I
