Testo: Otep. The Ascension. Confrontation.

Don't
Be.....
Silent.

FIGHT.

(violence, melees, & disturbances of the peace)

[verse 1]

Here's your introduction to destruction
& the hate sustaining me

Are we safer or in danger?
Drowning in atrocities?

Riot gear, the slaves are here
Piling corpses high

Its the rich man's war
But its the poor that fight

More capitalist crimes,
More enemies than allies

No WMD's - who gives a fuck
If they die

Just kill em all - watch em fall
Skin the world with their lies

Its a rich man's war
But its the poor that fight

[chorus]

Stand up
Speak out
Strike back

Stand up
Speak out
Strike back

They don't know
What they started

CONFRONTATION.

[verse 2]

My religion of resistance
Challenging everything

Radicals & dissidents
Of creativity

We are the children
Of the siege you hide
In this rich man's war
Where the poor just die

More deception & greed
More wars & disease

More lies from the hive mind
That seek to deceive

A weak nation of need
Like silent thieves in the night

Its a rich man's war
But it's the poor that die

[chorus]

Stand up
Speak out
Strike back

Stand up
Speak out
Strike back

They don't know
What they started

CONFRONTATION.

Stand - FIGHT
Speak - FIGHT
Strike back!

Stand - FIGHT
Speak - FIGHT
Strike back!

They don't know
What they started

CONFRONTATION.

[bridge]

This is my
Battle cry!

Defy the lies
Of the tyrant race
With a fist in the air
& a finger in their face!

DEFY THE TYRANTS!
DON'T BE SILENT!

DEFY THE TYRANTS!
DON'T BE SILENT!

DEFY THE TYRANTS!
DON'T BE SILENT!

DEFY THE TYRANTS!
DON'T BE SILENT!

[chorus]

Stand up
Speak out
Strike back

Stand up
Speak out
Strike back

They don't know
What they started

CONFRONTATION.

Stand - FIGHT
Speak - FIGHT
Strike back!

Stand - FIGHT
Speak - FIGHT
Strike back!

They don't know
What they started

CONFRONTATION.

[outro]

There's no
Way they
Can stop us
Now

So let them try
We fight or we die
