Insurrection
Lyrics
Well here we go again
I’ve been awoken from my slumber
Another restless sleep, and I wonder
What can it be this time?
Well, come put your faith in me
I’ve been waiting for you
For I will be there
When injustice needs correction
I am fuelled by fear and rejection
I am the physical voice of objection
I am a vote without election
I offer action without protection
When there is no other choice but my selection
Insurrection
I will be there when democracy fails
When justice goes off the rails
When all else falls down
I am the last resort
Born of desperation
When there is no support
When anger reaches fever pitch
I am the safety switch
Insurrection
I will be there when there is no other recourse
But action by force
Where no other voice can be heard
When there is no other way to be heard
Where every vision seems blurred
Where every voice seems slurred
When injustice needs to be fought
I am the last resort
Insurrection
