lyrics

People, at all times
Lose all control
It's now time, see all,
People
People, in line
Crowd's calm down,
Bright light, on fire
People

People go, and they never can back
No, I don't wanna live like that
I'm movin' on

Go, go, go

People, a loud cry
See it all around
As grass grows, wind blows
People, landslide
See through dark eyes
People movin' on, they say
