Riot Music

I'm not saying start a riot but um...
Look, I'm just musing to myself

What's that in your pocket?
That ain't yours, be honest
You've been stealing from the poor man's only wallet
Mercy for thieves? Fuck it
Hide in your castles, lock it
Can you hear the trumpets?
The reckoning is coming

This is the sound of a riot
And we're done being quiet
This is the sound of a riot
You woke up the giant

Here's another message
Judge people on their merits
Because fuck being selfish
Be both proud and sharing
Guess I got a fetish for equal rights and caring
Don't care if I perish
Rock and rap, the perfect marriage
Still dream of trips to Paris and Brazil
My baggage turned me into a savage
Now listen hard, we've got a lot more in common than we'd have thought
Remain united because divided we always fall
That is all

This is the sound of a riot
And we're done being quiet
This is the sound of a riot
You woke up the giant

The real danger to justice isn't injustice done in the open
It's the willing complacency and the unwilling ignorance
Of those who watch from the sidelines
Question the long lineage of hatred, alienation
And the abuse of power against the powerless
And remember, change isn't always linear
It can be a trajectory
But the more you fight, the higher it will land
And by fighting I mean fighting with every fibre of your being
Because it's about time
We chop the head off this venomous snake once and for all

End it once and for all
End it once and for all
End it once and for all
End it once and for all

Bounce your ass gently

Apocalyptic overtones
Bounce your ass to this flow
Apocalyptic overtones
Bounce your ass to this flow
