lyrics

You conflate terror
With being concerned
You don't wanna learn
It's bliss that you've earned
Believe in error
There's nothing wrong
It's taken this long
We're already gone

We'll throw our punches
Hoping they'll land
We're sinking in sand
A fist's still a hand
Forget our hunches
Trust what you see
Keep on mindlessly
Turn up the heat

We'll take the streets back
We're on the attack
We'll take the streets back
Revolución!
We'll take the streets back
We're on the attack
We'll take our lives back

And if you're threatened
By kids who ain't grown
Who go it alone
You might just be wrong
Your logic's deadened
Time poorly spent
Inconvenient
Ignoble intent

And in your quest to be a man
You'll do your worst the best you can
It's barely worth the sovereignty
These uplands ain't sunlit to me

Getting off on the othering
Never feeling that sorry
Only rooting for the home team
Defined by flag emojis
Scream at another heretic
It's not your own decision
Parroting tired rhetoric
Imitate an opinion
