Second verse will be up when i get home>
The lyrics of Good Charlotte's "Fight Song" are a protest against censorship and control. The opening lines, "You motherfuckers should of never turned my mic off," express the frustration of having one's voice silenced and the urge to fight back. The song suggests a violent response to oppression, with lines like "ready to get blood on my white tee" and "like me and I got shots to give."
However, the song also advocates for using music as a means of resistance. The lines "takes the rappers life, But rock is live" imply that while rappers may be killed for speaking out, rock music can still serve as a powerful tool for rebellion. The chorus of the song, with its repeated refrain of "whoooaaa this is a fight," emphasizes the idea of music as a rallying cry.
The second verse of the song, which is not included in these lyrics, continues the anti-government theme of the first verse. The song as a whole is a call to arms for anyone who feels oppressed or silenced, and an assertion of the power of music as a means of resistance.
