Raise the Flag 02:55
lyrics
buy track
Voiceless children, listen to what I say Rebellion and redemption is not so far away They drowned you out, knocked you down We wanted opportunity, but they just want the crown And you'll never know your strength Unless you put it to the test You've got to fight your way to the top If you want to be the best Here we go! Here we go! Now they'll finally know Who we are and what we do Raise the flag and start the show Start a fight! Start a fight! Make the fire burn all night This is our chance to make things right Independent, that's right they stand on their own Waiting for the single shot to take back their home And the riot squad, they've got a lot on their plate Tonight when the battle out the soldiers of our hate And you'll never know your strength Unless you put it to the test You've got to fight your way to the top If you want to be the best Here we go! Here we go! Now they'll finally know Who we are and what we do Raise the flag and start the show Start a fight! Start a fight! Make the fire burn all night This is our chance to make things right Here we go! Here we go! (Here we go! Here we go!) Here we go! Here we go! (Here we go! Here we go!) Here we go! Here we go! (Here we go! Here we go!) Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! Now they'll finally know Who we are and what we do Raise the flag and start the show Start a fight! Start a fight! Make the fire burn all night This is our chance to make things right Here we go!

We Don't Need You 02:37

Now they've started something different A long, long time ago They're stoners and the punks and the emo kids You never thought you'd know Now they're fading away slowly Trying to give in But we won't succumb, no we won't conform Yeah, we're better off in our own skin We are independent We stand up on our own We do what we want Not what you want us to do cause We're not mindless drones We're different, you can't stand it You don't know what to do We march to the beat of our own drum cause We don't need you Now you talk of revolution Where do you think it's from? You could lay on your ass and wait for time to pass But no, that's just plain dumb Now we're coming back for own sake So get back, get ready for more Cause we'll never ever be like you This place will go up in a fucking uproar We are independent We stand up on our own We do what we want Not what you want us to do cause We're not mindless drones We're different, you can't stand it You don't know what to do We march to the beat of our own drum cause We don't need you And now all across the city The Jesus Freaks all pray A sound corrupts their children Now they can say what they want to say An inspiration to be yourself In spite of everything Cops, kids, posers, tools... Fuck everything We are independent We stand up on our own We do what we want Not what you want us to do cause We're not mindless drones We're different, you can't stand it You don't know what to do We march to the beat of our own drum cause We don't need you We don't need you We don't need you We don't need you

You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die As a travesty of yourself You're a fool, you're a fool But you think you're really cool Cause you let your personality die Let it die You're a lie, you're a lie You're a motherfucking lie Sixteen-year-old at the height of insecurity Find your self-hatred as a sign of your maturity Nails aren't real and you've got make up instead of skin Paint yourself in plastic like a Bloomingdale's mannequin We have had enough Now your time is up You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die As a travesty of yourself You're a fool, you're a fool But you think you're really cool Cause you let your personality die Let it die You're a lie, you're a lie You're a motherfucking lie It's all a heap of lies, all the models in a magazine Stick your fingers down your throat, you think you'll make it on the scene? Pretty little girl, but you've got your body on display The self mutilation that do yourself will end today We have had enough Now your time is up You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die As a travesty of yourself You're a fool, you're a fool But you think you're really cool Cause you let your personality die Let it die You're a lie, you're a lie We won't Lose you To something you don't have to prove You run You hide Commit social suicide You crashed You fell You spend your life in hell Fuck them What they say Be whoever you want to be You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die You're a lie, you're a lie You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die As a travesty of yourself You're a fool, you're a fool But you think you're really cool Cause you let your personality die You're a lie, you're a lie Now you're gonna die As a travesty of yourself You're a fool, you're a fool But you think you're really cool Cause you let your personality die Let it die You're a lie, lie, lie

Another day spent on my couch I'm still going nowhere Just a lazy bum, a grouch I'm still going nowhere Repetitive thoughts circle in my head I'm still going nowhere Not worth a shit, hell I'm better off dead I'm still going nowhere Well I'm not going anywhere And you're still going nowhere So why don't we just go nowhere together? All by myself, I wonder how I'm still going nowhere All my friends would rather be somewhere else Going nowhere You know me better than I know myself I'm still going nowhere But then we take another hit I'm still going nowhere Well I'm not going anywhere And you're still going nowhere So why don't we just go nowhere together? Another day spent on my couch I'm still going nowhere Just a lazy bum, a grouch I'm still going nowhere Repetitive thoughts circle in my head I'm still going nowhere Not worth a shit, hell I'm better off dead Cause I'm going fucking nowhere Well I'm not going anywhere And you're still going nowhere So why don't we just go nowhere together? So why don't we just go nowhere together? So why don't we just go nowhere together? So why don't we just go nowhere together?

Riot On! 03:35
lyrics

Another child dead, a murderer set free In every state, the people can't believe It's happened once before and it's happening again Police brutality will never end Cause they know what they've done Summoning the firestorm A jury and a court system In need of drastic reform We riot on We're gonna fight all night til it's right Til he drops his gun We riot on, we riot on, we riot on A gavel hits the block, a family starts to cry Throughout the nation, people begging why? They claim to stand their ground, but the other weren't armed They let them go and say that no one's harmed They said it's justified And they got what they deserved But they won't stop us from rioting To see justice fucking served We riot on We're gonna fight all night til it's right Til he drops his gun We riot on, we riot on, we riot on A gray sweatshirt to represent A gray sweatshirt to represent Cause we riot, we riot on, we riot on We riot on, we riot on, we riot on We riot on, we riot on, we riot on We riot on, we riot on... We riot on We're gonna fight all night til it's right Til he drops his gun We riot on, we riot on, we riot on Crime is a crime No matter the color of your skin And murder is murder No matter what state you're in

Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Once moving forward and getting stronger on a sturdy pace Now spinning out of control, we've fallen far from grace The ignorance and media and hatred have boiled up a war The age of hysteria with a fire burning to the core It's time to open our eyes and look At this burning hell that we've made The fighting, the bodies, the money, the crime The price is still to be paid Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Eyes shut tight and bow your heads to what you all deny Imprison all the cattle, destroy their homes and send them off to die Selling off your kids, you make an obligation to the war I guess that's how it is, we fucked it up. Reality's a whore It's time to open our eyes and look At this burning hell that we've made The fighting, the bodies, the money, the crime The price is still to be paid Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands Dead America, dead America, dead America On your hands

Running back and forth in circles once again Questioning myself about who I am I'm constantly preoccupied with the world's judgement of me Why the hell do I give the time of day? Cause you've got your reigns on me A puppet of society Like the shallow grave I've dug up for myself Don't tell me what to do I can't live my life like you So the hollowness inside me's gone away Dead and gone, your time is done Now get out, go away The bastard son, you better run The new one's here to stay Hey Running back and forth in circles once again This time I know that it's the end I'm breaking out of this rusty cage I've been in so long So wake up now and wave the past goodbye Cause you've got your reigns on me A puppet of society Like the shallow grave I've dug up for myself Don't tell me what to do I can't live my life like you So the hollowness inside me's gone away Dead and gone, your time is done Now get out, go away The bastard son, you better run The new one's here to stay Hey Cause you've got your reigns on me A puppet of society Like the shallow grave I've dug up for myself Don't tell me what to do I can't live my life like you So the hollowness inside me's gone away Dead and gone, your time is done Now get out, go away The bastard son, you better run The new one's here to stay Dead and gone, your time is done Now get out, go away The bastard son, you better run The new one's here to stay Hey Hey

Desperate Times 02:29

Stan, he was a family man Working for the bank But God, don't get him angry He had a problem with his booze So when he got laid off He cooked his family into stew And when the cops came knocking Stan was on the floor With a shotgun in his mouth No one lived there anymore You get the pit-like feel in your stomach It's like a black hole It makes you feel small, feel insignificant You have no control Desperate times call for desperate measures When there's nowhere else left to turn Hank, desperate for some money To raise his family He had two sons and a daughter But the boys sold and sniffed blow They got shot up by dealers Before Hank could ever know So he tried robbing a liquor store And got sent straight to jail His daughter was found overdosed In the street, so cold and pale You get the pit-like feel in your stomach It's like a black hole It makes you feel small, feel insignificant You have no control Desperate times call for desperate measures When there's nowhere else left to turn You get the pit-like feel in your stomach It's like a black hole It makes you feel small, feel insignificant You have no control Desperate times call for desperate measures When there's nowhere else left to turn

Getting off my feet and I'm starting to soar I'm pissed and I'm senseless and I'm starting a war Watch the fights begin as my eyes turn red Bang! Bang! You're dead, there's a bullet in your head Strike a match and go and then throw it to a crowd Watch the towers fall and yell really fucking loud See the hooded figures running up and down the street Pigs will keep them down and then peg them til they're beat It's a... It's a go! When the riots break out The anarchists start to shout There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right Spilling all your gore But they're still screaming for more There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right Struggle to escape and I step on broken glass Try to cut the corner, but the guards don't let me pass Sparks and debris and the ringing of a bell A molotov explodes and I feel the fires of hell Shots ringing out over the nighttime sky Screaming so much hatred, now my lungs are dry I can hear explosions from the bombs so loud Burning at the bottom of a mushroom cloud It's a... It's a go! When the riots break out The anarchists start to shout There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right Spilling all your gore But they're still screaming for more There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right Hide me... Hide me now! When the riots break out The anarchists start to shout There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right Spilling all your gore But they're still screaming for more There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right When the riots break out The anarchists start to shout There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right Spilling all your gore But they're still screaming for more There's gonna be a fight tonight, that's right When the riots break out When the riots break out When the riots break out

Static Misery 02:41

Far beyond reality, a medium of lies An insidious agenda destroys your conscious mind Tune in for an episode of who you wanna be Cause it's comfortable to see All I hear is blah blah blah on television But nothing means a goddamn thing The media's turned to ignorance Well they're keeping the TV screens clean All I hear is blah blah blah on the airwaves But how is it relevant to me? The media's turned to ignorance Well we live in the age of static misery Keep your sanity close at hand, it'll come in handy one day When fucked up reality shows try to tell you who to be Primetime sitcoms try to keep the innocence But we know it makes no sense All I hear is blah blah blah on television But nothing means a goddamn thing The media's turned to ignorance Well they're keeping the TV screens clean All I hear is blah blah blah on the airwaves But how is it relevant to me? The media's turned to ignorance Well we live in the age of static misery And all I hear is Blah blah blah on television But nothing means a goddamn thing The media's turned to ignorance Well they're keeping the TV screens clean All I hear is blah blah blah on the airwaves But how is it relevant to me? The media's turned to ignorance Well we live in the age of static misery
