Wake up, tie the tie, don’t ask why  
Clock in, nod your head, let truth slide  
At home, at work, in the land of the free  
We’re trained to bow, not to see  


They say “Speak when spoken to”  
We say “Yes Sir, we’ll follow through”  
But deep down, something’s burning  
A voice inside, slowly turning  

Yes Sir — to the boss, to the flag, to the fear  
Yes Sir — to the rules that keep us here  
But I’m done with the silence, done with the blur  
It’s time to rise and say — No Sir  


Dinner table politics, hush your tone  
Don’t rock the boat, don’t stand alone  
They feed us lines, we call it peace  
But truth don’t live in forced release  


I’m not your puppet, not your pawn  
I’ve got a mind, I’ve got a dawn  
No more nodding just to survive  
I want to live, not just comply  


Yes Sir — was the anthem of our sleep  
Yes Sir — kept our questions buried deep  
But now the echo’s breaking, hearts concur  
We’re standing tall and saying — No Sir
