Got your own gang
Slogans turning blank
Can't accept the changes
Nothing to prove, I dissent and go
Let me tune in one I know
Some problems take your time
Telling you what's wrong or right
When hate disqualifies your heart
I'm sailing to the shore of hope!
Got your own gang
Thinking exactly the same
Like uniform trend
Nothing to prove, I dissent and go
Let me tune in one I know
Sharing your life in wrong or right
