CONTRAVENE LYRICS

"Stand Up And Resist"

The voice of the victim stays silent, unnoticed in order to turn over a profit. 
The power structure doesn't just change from a wish. 
It takes action - persistence. 
So how many more times will I hear "it's not my fight"? 
Stand up & resist 
Before we start to open up our eyes? 
Stand up & resist 
We must realize that it's one fucking struggle - it's one fucking fight. 
Everything is connected - one world, one struggle, one power, one people. 
How many more times will we forcefeed generations the lies? 
Stand up & resist 
Lies of freedom while teaching them the ways of oppression 
Stand up and resist 
Why do we forcefeed generations lies of freedom, while teaching them the ways of oppression? 
That they have a voice, but they shouldn't raise it 
That they have a choice, but don't know how to make it 
That they have freedom but shouldn't question what that means 
That they are merely another cog, in the machine.
