Strife - Insurrection lyrics

Verse 1: Born into sh** I'm sworn to resist Always been a thorn in the side of Big Biz We can't afford to submit, time to Think big… Take over ya workplace, hand ya boss a pink slip Told us we're all pre-rich I believed em, till the sherriff came to evict And my debts eclipsed, my right to exist, i've seen sh** Protests been villianized, I mean it It's getting late The states militarized, plain as day Free speech ain't free, the cost is a cage Speak up- get framed and locked away Maybe lost in the rat race maze But it's not too late I've lived under the gun And I've lived under strain Still Driven to overcome the hunger pains While some brains get branded and tongues get trained I Reveal the puppeteers who fund campaigns See the bank in flames will burn gepetto's strings Lemme explain the game and set it straight We don't stop em now, how can we see a better day? In this free market state Control breeds hate Wall street the target Let's clear the slate Test ya free-will, time to wrestle fate Manifest with sk**s, don't just speculate We're not va**als or slaves Grab tha torch and storm the castles gates Verse 2: I'll bring it to ya face cause Talk is cheap Mean what you say Say what you mean Our Love & Rage We'll take it to the streets The owners won't let us dream We won't let em sleep I'm in ya corner Best believe I gotcha back Til we're wild and free Launch attacks Till we get what we need Don the black mask The math doesn't add up That's a haunting fact Raid the rich Take the sponsors cash We're coming for the king Now the pawns have gats (x2) Bridge Tip the scales Of robber-baron policy Pistol sales can Flip the script of inequality Verse 3a Get off your knees The foods under lock and key Soon charged you for clean air to breathe It's Manufactured scarcity We make ends meet precariously You got the match, (huh.) I got the kerosene Now we baring our teeth And sharing their feast I'm daring to get free They'll never break me I ain't a rat Chasing fast cheese Manipulation leads to catastrophe Gentrification is dastardly Don't accept it pa**ively That's not how it has to be Blast with me Turn ya life to a masterpiece Learn from trouble strife and tragedy In struggle we're all one human family So Get the last laugh with me Bridge Not surprised our rights been neglected Watch us rise tonight, it's insurrection Verse 3b Back Against the Wall Waiting for the Axe to Fall Facing Shock and awe We co*k and draw, plan and plot Get your neck off the chopping block It's the final straw It's the last stop We're the have-nots Why we share what we got Tired of being double-crossed Strike while the irons hot All ya need is Spray-paint, rocks, and molotovs Go to war, don the black camoflauge Smash the chain stores It's economic sabotage
