Fight Back
It's so hard not to trip when this shit is so damn whack
The systems rigged, minorities keep falling through the cracks
Middle class keeps getting squeezed
All the power has been seized
And yet the beast is still not appeased
The rich can't bare to share even a fraction of the wealth
We passing pennies around just praying for our health
We fight amongst ourselves all for a team we be joining
Symptoms of a world that's been subsisting off of poison
Wish we could just cut it out and kill the source
It's hard not to believe what we need is force
We've yelled and protested till our voices turned hoarse
Nothings really changed and we just mourn another corpse
They want us broken down and compliant
They hate us when we stand defiant
Hate us when we kneel in silence
Hate us when we "take their jobs"
They say all we do steal and rob
Whatever happened to the dream
Seems freedom didn't ring quite as loudly as it should
How'd we get this far along and still not be understood
Let's scream it out from the mountaintops
Cops popped off shots and another body drops
Kids exploited worldwide in sweatshops
Unemployment skyrockets Amazon keeps seeing profits
Politicians keep lying one hand washes the other
Lobbyists push business interests and suppress the wage
No real candidate ever even takes the stage
They've all been bought and sold
You'll still get left out in the cold
Keep your eyes open or you'll get controlled
What's the difference between a riot and a protest
Some are fighting for the status quo and others for some progress
Stay United and don't lose your focus
Children of the revolution
It's time for retribution restitution and economic redistribution
We are dangerous United and weak divided
Don't be so damn small minded
We fight amongst ourselves and they get excited
So delighted we need class consciousness
Don't believe them and their empty promises
We are all nothing but hostages
They'll keep exploiting our labour
Pennies on the dollar from the modern day slavers
Want you to point the finger at your neighbour
Don't you dare trust that stranger
They want what you have so you're in danger
Don't trust these immigrants or these minorities
They look suspicious better call the authorities
Don't let them poison your brain we all the same
The systems rigged, minorities keep falling through the cracks
Middle class keeps getting squeezed
All the power has been seized
And yet the beast is still not appeased
The rich can't bare to share even a fraction of the wealth
We passing pennies around just praying for our health
We fight amongst ourselves all for a team we be joining
Symptoms of a world that's been subsisting off of poison
Wish we could just cut it out and kill the source
It's hard not to believe what we need is force
We've yelled and protested till our voices turned hoarse
Nothings really changed and we just mourn another corpse
They want us broken down and compliant
They hate us when we stand defiant
Hate us when we kneel in silence
Hate us when we "take their jobs"
They say all we do steal and rob
Whatever happened to the dream
Seems freedom didn't ring quite as loudly as it should
How'd we get this far along and still not be understood
