No Allegiance
Earth Crisis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have nothing but contempt for the turncoats who
Give in. To regress from purity to weakness I can't allow.
The blatant desecration of a sacred vow. Fuck the two-faced
Losers. Fuck all who go untried. Fuck the evil bastards
Who still stand by their side. Fuck all who cheapened what I truly am
In others eyes. Fuck all those who bent the straight edge
With their fucking lies. Integrity, sincerity, I choose to live
No tolerance for weakness is what's allowed I say.
My decree is my law and it's here to stay. Fuck the two-faced losers.
Fuck all who go untried. Fuck the evil bastards who still
Stand by their side. Fuck all who cheapened what I truly am in others eyes.
Fuck all those who bent the straight edge with
Their fucking lies.
The lyrics of Earth Crisis’s “No Allegiance” is a passionate refusal to compromise on one’s values and principles. The chorus “fuck the two-faced losers, fuck all who go untried, fuck the evil bastards who still stand by their side” contains a sense of betrayal towards those who claim to share the same beliefs but are not true to themselves. The lyrics advocate for purity and integrity in one’s choices and actions. The reference to “bent the straight edge” suggests that the song is aimed at people who claim to be straight-edge but do not abide by its principles. Additionally, the lyrics express contempt for those who succumb to weakness and impurity, and call for a life lived “against the grain” with no room for tolerance towards weakness.
The song “No Allegiance” is a powerful message against complacency and apathy towards values and principles that should not be compromised. The song emphasizes the importance of maintaining the purity of one’s beliefs and not allowing oneself to be swayed by the influence of others. It is a call to action to stand firm and committed to living a principled life.
