lyrics

(Verse)
Let me tell you a story
About the boy who cried wolf
He lost his life, paid the price.
All that’s left is his skull
Now, I hope it sounds familiar
Doesn’t take half a brain
That hungry wolf is me
But I ain’t calling your name.
My jokes are Year 3000
Already cleared the slate
Wipe that smirk off
Your stuff is too 2000-late
You think you feel any better
Shutting me down like that
I’m surprised that these people
Can put up with your crap
I FERVENTLY PROCLAIM!
FUCK THE ENEMIES!
FIGHT THE POWER!
FEEL THE PAIN!
COME AT ME, WON'T YOU BREATHE,
I KNOW IT AIN'T RIGHT,
YOU'RE CALLED TO HIS JUDGMENT
SO HOW COME YOU DON'T FIGHT!

(Chorus)
The claws are coming out tonight.
Tonight they’re looking for a fight.
Society has never seen
Anything like this before
No more writings on the wall.
It’s all across the Albert Hall.
No one knows how this will go.
Ask your friends for the score.

(Verse)
I’m still not done with my rant.
I have a few minutes more.
Be warned! It’s so profane
That you can’t buy it in stores
I’ve been like this since thirteen.
It’s when I knew who I was
I have myself to thank
To keep me off of that bus
It wasn’t easy for me
Some rules you have to bend
When you’re bullied looking emo
To your family and friends
I had years to think
About how stupid they sound
Now flash forward to the present
And the words still resound
NO LONGER!
THEY WON'T CURSE THE YOUTH
WE WON'T SURRENDER.
OUR SUPPORT WON'T DIFFUSE.
CONGREGATION! BUILD
WITH OUR OWN TWO HANDS!
RETRIBUTION! MAN UP AND
FUCK THEIR DEMANDS!

(Chorus)

(Solo)

(Chorus)
