Hunger Strike Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't mind stealin' bread from the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled, yeah
But it's on the table, the fire's cookin'
And they're farmin' babies, while the slaves are all workin'
Blood is on the table, the mouths are all chokin'
But I'm goin' hungry, yeah

[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Chris Daughtry]
I don't mind stealin' bread from the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled, hey, mmm
But it's on the table, the fire's cookin'
And they're farmin' babies, the slaves are all workin'

And it's on the table, their mouths are all chokin'

[Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon & Chris Daughtry]
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon & Chris Daughtry]
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
[Outro: Lajon Witherspoon & Chris Daughtry]
(Yeah, I don't mind stealin' bread) I don't mind
(No, I don't mind stealin' bread) I don't mind
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry, yeah)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
