Rulle Med Oss
Gatas Parlament Lyrics

In the first verse by Elling, he emphasizes the act of filling the tires with air by saying "Pump, pump, pump, pump luft i dekka." This can be seen as a metaphor for preparing oneself and ensuring readiness for the challenges ahead. He also mentions "mekka," which in urban slang means to create or fix something, indicating that they have put in the work and effort to be where they are now. The following line about believing in Jesus or turning towards Mecca highlights the theme of unity and inclusivity, suggesting that regardless of one's beliefs or background, they are all in it together. The phrase "En for alle alle for en så slutt rekka" further reinforces this idea of solidarity and collective action.

Jester's verse delves deeper into the struggles and challenges faced by individuals who may feel marginalized or oppressed. He questions the injustices and inequalities present in society, using Gatas Parlament's unique style of wordplay and storytelling to shed light on these issues. The references to a pink color symbolize a different perspective or way of seeing things, contrasting the conventional or mainstream viewpoints. Jester calls for a rebellion against those who hold power and oppress others, advocating for standing up and fighting back. The imagery of raising fists and proud banners signifies a sense of defiance and resistance against oppressive forces.

The chorus, or hook, emphasizes the idea that they will not allow themselves to be oppressed or silenced. The call to "Kast deg på hjul for å sloss" encourages individuals to join the fight and stand up for what they believe in. The metaphorical flames that cannot be extinguished symbolize the burning passion and determination within them to keep fighting for justice and equality. The invitation to "rulle med oss" invites others to join their cause and be part of this movement for change and empowerment.

Elling's second verse continues the theme of resistance and activism, highlighting their determination to continue pedaling forward until their demands are met. The mention of protesting on bicycles and signing labor agreements showcases their commitment to advocating for workers' rights and fair treatment. The image of directing the street where they tread, influencing people from all walks of life, reflects their inclusive approach to activism. The anecdote about a young child aspiring to join a bicycle strike in the future underscores the message of passing on the torch of resistance and inspiring the next generation to fight for a better world.
