Rebel With a Cause

How did it come to be that hate is all you see, it's growing like a weed Distant memories Solemn eulogies planted in the seeds To be seen Raise your hands is disbelief Cast your flag into the see And this countries on its knees What did it cost to be free Raise your heads in defiance Your deafened screams turn to silence We are rebels with a cause and we won't fight in unjust wars When our protests hit the pavement Will you feel any regret when your boots are on our necks But we are here to make a statement As the scripture bleeds the people are deceived And their lies are believed Know your enemy as you know your cup of tea In the land of the free its not so free Raise your hands is disbelief Cast your flag into the see And this countries on its knees What did it cost to be free Raise your heads in defiance Your deafened screams turn to silence We are rebels with a cause and we won't fight in unjust wars When our protests hit the pavement Will you feel any regret when your knees are on our necks But we are here to make a statement
