Insurrection
FGFC820 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is an urgent call to arms
This is all for your protection
This is to keep you safe from harm
In every field there blooms a land mine
In every silo, crops of steel
We sow the seeds like founding fathers
Hey, you! Try it again!
Kick me when I'm down
Every blow is fuel for the flame
Kick me when I'm down
Hey, you! Try it again!
Kick me when I'm down
Pain is hate by a different name
Kick me when I'm down
The city smolders in the distance
I can smell the fires burn
We can't abide this fool's existence
We can't forget the lessons learned
(It's) the sharpest blade the cuts the quickest
To restore the common good
If you want to cure the sickness
You've got to spill a little blood
Hey, you! Try it again!
Kick me when I'm down
Every blow is fuel for the flame
Kick me when I'm down
Hey, you! Try it again!
Kick me when I'm down
Pain is hate by a different name
Kick me when I'm down
The lyrics of FGFC820's "Insurrection" are a passionate call to take action against perceived threats and injustices. The song begins with the singer urging listeners to join a rebellion or insurrection in order to protect themselves from harm. The second verse contains vivid imagery of danger lurking everywhere, such as land mines in a field and crops of steel in silos. Despite this, the singer sees themselves as going through the hard work of building a better world, "sowing the seeds like founding fathers" and "tilling the soil with our heels."
The chorus of "Insurrection" is a repetitive call-and-response, with the singer urging someone to "kick me when I'm down." This line takes on a double meaning: it's a challenge to those who seek to oppress or harm them, but it's also an acknowledgement that the pain and struggle they experience fuels their resolve to continue fighting. The bridge returns to the theme of violence as a necessary means to an end, with the singer comparing it to a sharp blade. The song ends on a resolute note, with the singer declaring that they cannot tolerate the continued existence of a "fool" who threatens them and that if they want to make meaningful change, they must be willing to "spill a little blood."
