rise against
Revolting Breed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Go on, have a look around
This what you expected?
Breath in, spit out
Your dreams have been rejected

A whole world dressed in fear
So helpless they all seem
The only hope is born
From TV shows and gods

Slaves to their well-made lie
Feed them to feed you back
Bullshit, you do not need them
Fight! Rise against!

A whole society based on submission
The will to change the world became a child illness
Listen to the dridge of the oppressed
The funeral of human dignity

Have you ever questioned
How different could it be
If all our misery
Turned into hate?

Let's write the walls
Let's scream out loud
Refuse, resist,
RISE AND REVOLT!

Slaves to their well-made lie
Feed them to feed you back
Bullshit, you do not need them
Fight! Rise against!

You're born, you live, you die forgotten
The only thing that's left behind is your fight





Rise Against!
