Lyric

You point your finger, tell me who to be

Another loudmouth preaching hypocrisy

You build your walls, you draw your lines

But you’ll never crawl inside my mind

Every day it’s the same old lie

“Fit the mold or fade and die”

But I’d rather burn than live on my knees

I ain’t your slave — I do as I please

Push me down

Spit in my face

Still I rise from the human waste

You can’t break me down!

You can’t shut me out!

I’ve been living through the violence

Now I’m screaming loud and proud!

You can’t cage this rage!

You can’t kill this sound!

I’ve got scars like loaded weapons

And I’m still standing here right now!

Teachers, leaders, television clowns

Talking shit while the whole world drowns

They sell fear with a plastic grin

While corruption eats us from within

I’ve seen friends get thrown away

For being different every day

But the freaks and the outcasts know

That pain only makes us grow

Beat us down

Watch us bleed

Still we become what you fear to see

You can’t break me down!

You can’t shut me out!

I’ve been living through the violence

Now I’m screaming loud and proud!

You can’t cage this rage!

You can’t kill this sound!

I’ve got scars like loaded weapons

And I’m still standing here right now!

I won’t bow

I won’t kneel

Everything you are is fake to me

Your rules mean nothing

Your truth’s a joke

I’d rather die than fucking choke!

STAND UP!

FIGHT BACK!

NO FEAR!

ATTACK!

STAND UP!

FIGHT BACK!

WE AIN’T EVER GONNA CRACK!

You can’t break me down!

You can’t own my soul!

I survived the hate and madness

Now I’m never letting go!

You can’t silence us!

We are underground!

Every misfit, every outcast

Still screaming loud and proud!

Still standing…

Still bleeding…

Still fighting…

Still free
