Beat The System - Petra

Caught in the undertow being swept downstream
Going against the flow seems like such a dream
Trying to hold your ground when you start to slide
Pressure to compromise comes from every side

Wise up, rise up
Wise up, rise up

You can be more than a conqueror
You will never face defeat
You can dare to win by losing all
You can face the heat and dare to beat the system
Face the heat and dare to beat the system

On the assembly line trying to break the mould
Time to throw the wrench that will stop it cold
Going against the odds being the underdog
Dare to wield the sword that will slice the fog

Wise up, rise up
Wise up, rise up

You can be more than a conqueror
You will never face defeat
You can dare to win by losing all
You can face the heat and dare to beat the system
Face the heat and dare to beat the system

You can go for it all
You can go for broke
You can turn the tide around
You can aim for the top
And take the lion's share
If you dare to hold your ground

Beat the system

Wise up, rise up
Wise up, rise up

You can be more than a conqueror
You will never face defeat
You can dare to win by losing all
You can face the heat and dare to beat the system
Face the heat and dare to beat the system
Beat the system
You can beat the system
