Come with us and for the last time
Join us for the final stand
When I wake up and almost every night
Whether it's morning or night, I can feel the oppression
Cops are here coming coming for you
The law enforcement is always after us
I see the sirens red white and blue
The flashing lights remind us of their power and our vulnerability
We won't change we'll fight back again
We won't give in, we'll retaliate
We're fighting what we're all about
Our fight defines us
When it comes up I like to scream and shout
When the chance arises, I express my anger
We're fighting back won't change today
We're staying true to our ideals today
We won't change we'll fight back again
We'll keep fighting even when it gets tough
We're fighting back won't change today
Our resolve won't falter today
We won't change we'll fight back today
Today is the day we stand up and fight

They were my favorite band for a while. Randomly discovered their music somewhere and saw them at warped tour with suicide machine, it was a killer show! Too bad they didn't get more notice because they definitely had the sound to make it far
