This Is a Threat - Still Rings True

This is a warning

This is a threat to every one

Who refuses to wake up

We will no longer

Sit here and watch you hold us down

Yeah we are turning it around

And taking back

Every promise that you broke

Every dream you tried to choke

Out of our hearts

Yeah we are fighting for our lives

We are the youth and we are strong

And we’ve let you own us for too long

The choice you’ve offered us is wrong

We’ve found a place that we belong

All this time

You saddled us with your decay

Then you lead us blindly

Straight into our graves

We just want more

Than the burden of your mistakes

We will tear this world apart

To find our way/ out of this hole

That you have carved out of our souls

We have watched your greed

Take over self control

And we are tired of pretending it’s okay

Now there’s nothing standing in our way
