Lyrics

This credit crunch
no time for lunch
I've got a hunch
it's time to
look around for

a hut on a beach
just out of reach
of all the leeches
feeding
off my soul

this lot don't care
they like despair
talking from their chairs
I think you know who they are

they drop the bombs
tell us what's wrong
string us along
but this time they've gone too far

I'm not, I'm not trying

These wars in the east
are a two headed beast
half the story's released
in the news
indoctrination

and the shootings in schools
are false flag tools
these games are so cruel
and heartless
they need our obligation

they said we'd be free
with their green energy
but raise taxes for greed and power
they're poisoning our homes

taking down our borders
for the new world order
peace brought by the sword
the future's already sold

I'm not, I'm not trying

I'm not trying to stir things
not trying to stir things
it's just they're ruining everything
and pulling all the strings
it's not right that we just stand by
not right we let things lie
it's time to protect this place
this matrix of life

The sun shall be darkened
and the moon shall not give its light
the stars shall fall from the heavens
everyday will turn into night
every mountain and island
shall be shaken
and for death many shall yearn
two will be in the field and one taken
with the great whore and beast
they shall burn
they who do wrong shall do more wrong
and the dead shall rise from the grave
as the wicked perish
the righteous live on
who endures to the end
shall be saved

We need to stick together
like birds of a feather
unity and liberation forever
you're not alone

there's no time to waste
they will destroy this place
we need to tear down their endeavor
and overthrow

I don't care about the risk
to expose their weakness
let's fight for freedom and justice
and get our voices heard

now is our chance
we are the resistance
let's rock this mic and get some busted
before this place burns

I'm not trying to stir things
not trying to stir things
it's just they're ruining everything
and pulling all the strings
it's not right that we just stand by
not right we let things lie
it's time to protect this place
this matrix of life

We are the resistance
