Hate Conquers All lyrics - Anti-Flag
"In the good ol' days this doesn't happen because they used to treat them very very rough. And when they protested once, they would not do it again so easily."
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
With our
The new disorder of the impoverished nation state
The endless cycle, divide and manipulate
Never give in to the sympathy
Never give in to reality
No one could save us
So build up and lock the gate
Never give in to a sensory
Never give in to the honesty
No one could save us
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
The same masters who made us their fuckin' slaves
Are now our saviors I'm so sick of needing to be saved
Never give in to the sympathy
Never give in to reality
No one could save us
"And you know what? The audience swung back. And I thought it was very appropriate. The audience hit back. And that's what we need a little bit more of."
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
Hate conquers, hate conquers all
It Went Off Like A Bomb lyrics - Anti-Flag
And it went off like a bomb
Incinerating, unforgiving
Gone...
No recovery, no pretending
Collision course - it's just a wreck
Shock and awe - no turning back
Nothing left to say or be done
It went off like a bomb
In the dark, in a place where no one sleeps
In the veins of extremist war
There's a message in the words that they speak
There's an action that they're callin' for
They make hallow all the shallow
Accidents of birth and reign
Zealot scum fucks kill for fame
We erase their names
And it went off like a bomb
Incinerating, unforgiving
Gone...
No recovery, no pretending
Collision course - it's just a wreck
Shock and awe - no turning back
Nothing left to say or be done
It went off like a bomb
Dog whistles endlessly
Storm troopers in the wings
Gin up the devotees
Certain they're under siege
Division sewn to yield a firestorm
Another product of the new norm
You think you're safe? It won't be too long
Until it all goes wrong
And it went off like a bomb
Incinerating, unforgiving
Gone...
No recovery, no pretending
Collision course - it's just a wreck
Shock and awe - no turning back
Nothing left to say or be done
It went off like a bomb
Yeah went off like a bomb
Yeah went off like a bomb
20/20 Vision lyrics - Anti-Flag
I had a 20/20 vision
Of the last of the wrongs undone
No more hate, no division
No one is free until the war is won
Is there an answer to the question?
When will this come to its end?
Or do we just keep on repeating
All the things that the loathsome did?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Tell me, which side are you on?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
One by one
Now there's a silence on the radio
Now there's a hole right through our heart
And the last of the wicked
Waiting to tear us all apart
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Tell me, which side are you on?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
One by one
I had a 20/20 vision
Of the last of the wrongs undone
No more hate, no division
No one is free until the war is won
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Tell me, which side are you on?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
For the people or the gun?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
One by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
Christian Nationalist lyrics - Anti-Flag
History is rife with the likes of you
History is littered with the likes of you
We'll never back down in the face of the likes of you
Never back down in the face of the likes of you
You're no better than the rest
White neo Christian nationalist
Religious law your litmus test
White neo fascist supremist
Off on the crusade of a century
With a vengeance in your veins for your enemies
Hate in your heart and division in your eye
You got queers to convert, you got lies to entice
And I can show you a compassionate authoritarian
Corrupted patriotism sold as nationalism
Your theocratic beliefs are a moral weapon
Full of venom Armageddon
You're no better than the rest
White neo Christian nationalist
Religious law your litmus test
White neo fascist supremist
We reject theocracy
We reject your view of the world
You're no better than the rest
White neo Christian nationalist
We all know who you are yeah
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
You're no better than the rest
White neo Christian nationalist
Religious law your litmus test
White neo fascist terrorist
You're no better than the rest
White neo Christian nationalist
Religious law your litmus test
White neo fascist supremist
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
We all know who you are
Don't Let The Bastards Get You Down lyrics - Anti-Flag
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Oh, no...
Don't let the bastards get you down
Screaming back at home on a cracked phone
There's no one to hear you when they just don't want to know
No cleaning up the mess they left in a nowhere town
The future just contains what we put into it now
Open up the windows of your boxed in art
Open the prison gates, open up your heart
You no longer sleep quiet once you've opened up your eyes
Only when the truth is recognized
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
Open up the windows of your boxed in art
Open the prison gates, open up your heart
You no longer sleep quiet once you've opened up your eyes
Only when the truth is recognized
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
We refuse to be highrised
Inventoried, merchandised
Indoctrinated by things we're told to fear
We refuse to be cast aside
Ridiculed and normalized
Worried by things we're told to fear
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Oh, no...
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down down down
Unbreakable lyrics - Anti-Flag
When I get knocked down I get back up again, yeah
Backed by my family and my friends, yeah
A vicious culture leaves us lost in life
Fuelled on anger, fuelled on spite
Watch the phoenix risin' up
This ain't no fucking joke
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
In every single way
No, don't let them back you against the wall, yeah
And make you feel like you're nothing, nothing at all
No, we're not broken and we don't scare
Keep your acclaim because we don't care
What doesn't kill us now
Will lead us back from Hell
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
In every single way
Unbreakable
Ready to face the world
Unbreakable
And I'm ready to feel
To feel the sharp shock of the phoenix risin'
Rising out of the east
Rising with the sun
And the moment you realize
That nothing can keep you down
Hard times come and go
Roll with the punches
Everything they throw
Look sharp and tell yourself
You're gonna make it through
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
I'm never gonna change
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
In every single way
Unbreakable
It's time to face the world
Unbreakable
And I'm ready to feel
To feel the sharp shock of the phoenix risin'
The Disease lyrics - Anti-Flag
We are the fire in the attic
We are the voices in the static
You have a sickness
And we are the disease
That brings you to your knees
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
And we are the disease, we are the disease
We are the disease
We are the disease
Critical shutdown of false virtue
The viral outbreak to kill the untruth
You have a cancer
And we are the disease
That brings you to your knees
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
And we are the disease, we are the disease
We are the disease
We are the disease
Yeah we are the disease
We are the roll call of the pursuit
(The misery, the company)
We are the echo of violent truth
(Your apathy feeds the machine)
We are the whisper of the lit fuse
(You're a disgrace of the disease)
We are the voices and we reject you
(We reject you, and we reject you)
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
And we are the disease, we are the disease
We are the disease
We are the disease
Yeah we are the disease
A Nation Sleeps lyrics - Anti-Flag
A nation sleeps
Another stays hungry and doesn't dare to dream
The success we seek
Trickles down to a gutter where the prison bars meet
Foundations weak
Add more stress to the cracks in the balance sheet
But please don't speak
The earth is a product, save the receipt
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
In a society (In a society)
That abolishes all things (That abolishes all things)
To abolish society (To abolish society)
Is the only thing
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
Those who make
Freedom halfway
Are those who dig
Their own graves
Those who make
Freedom halfway
Are those who dig
Their own graves
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
You Make Me Sick lyrics - Anti-Flag
When I think about you, you make me sick
You're a maniac, a liar, you're piece of shit
A cynical, condescending, hypocrite
Everything you do, you make me, make me sick
There's a cancer in the room and it ain't goin' nowhere
Salt rubbed in a wound, a council of despair
I wish I could care less, more than I can admit
There's no turning it off, there's just no way to make it quit
When I think about you, you make me sick
You're a maniac, a liar, you're piece of shit
A cynical, condescending, hypocrite
Everything you do, you make me, make me sick
And there ain't no coming back from the words you vomit
A pain inside my chest that I can't stomach
I wish I could careless, more than I can admit
There's no turning it off, there's just no way to make it quit
The sound of your voice
The look of your grin
The smell of your breath
The waste of your skin
The hate in your eyes
The spite of your kin
Just goes on and on
It just never ends
The sound of your voice
The look of your grin
The smell of your breath
The waste of your skin
The hate in your eyes
The spite of your kin
Just goes on and on
It just never ends
When I think about you, you make me sick
You're a maniac, a liar, you're piece of shit
A cynical, condescending, hypocrite
Everything you do, you make me, make me sick
You make me sick
You make me sick
You make me, you make me, you make me
You make me, you make me, you make me sick
Un-American lyrics - Anti-Flag
The bottom floor of a cold building
Promised a career and a diamond ring
Glass ceiling above, nothing under her feet
"Honey, just give me a smile, how hard can that be..."
Life at 26 ain't what she thought it would be
Now she's waking up from an American Dream
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
Factory floor, that they told him would stay
Another line sold on another campaign
The churches decay by his grandparents grave
A town exchanged for the money they saved
Life at 36 ain't what he thought it would be
Now he's waking up from an American Dream
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
Apartment floor, to the stadium
The roar of the crowd and the marching drums
All his life they taught him how to run
Shot in the back, the jury was the gun
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
Resistance Frequencies lyrics - Anti-Flag
Hear the echo ringing in the chambers of their power
The state of our ruin, clocking just over an hour
The victims are just props in a public execution
Of justice, freedom, liberty in neofascist movements
It's not a dying planet that's made you less free
Is it the brown child, that we've caged publicly?
Is it the pharmaceutical that's fueling our disease?
The cartels, the fentanyl, the howling coyote...
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Are you gonna watch it fall?
Or are you gonna heed the call?
Carried out on resistance frequencies
And now it's wall or nothing to glorious applause
You trample over anyone to make you feel tall
There's a concentration camp being built along your border
Another world is possible, when we refuse the order
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Are you gonna watch it fall?
Or are you gonna heed the call?
Carried out on resistance frequencies
Are you gonna watch it fall?
Or are you gonna heed the call?
Carried out on resistance frequencies
Born To Run lyrics - Anti-Flag
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from the cop
Born to run from the border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from the cop
Born to run from the border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
I curse the myth we're fed
I calculate the dead
I know the mission hasn't been accomplished yet
15 years of war means 100 more
And that may be where we only begin
I heard Katrina cry
I saw torture denied
I choked and suffocated on the smoke 'em out lie
Maybe the answers we need won't be sold on a screen
Is it the opioids?
The CIA?
The CNN?
The Coca-Cola in our veins?
No one could see disaster staring right in our face?
Is it the air we breathe?
The Flint water stream?
The next iPhone?
Or the Fair Trade coffee?
You gotta start somewhere, if you wanna get nowhere
I won't believe the lie
I wont concede our peace
I now that no righteous words have been written to decease
Crash and burn, toss and turn, somehow we were never prepared
I heard Katrina cry
I saw torture denied
I choked and suffocated on the smoke 'em out lie
Maybe the answers we need won't be sold on a screen
Is it the opioids?
The CIA?
The CNN?
The Coca-Cola in our veins?
No one could see disaster staring right in our face?
Is it the air we breathe?
The Flint water stream?
The next iPhone?
Or the Fair Trade coffee?
You gotta start somewhere, if you wanna get nowhere
Action not reaction as the world decays
As we scream out loud like hell in civil war charades
Stand together as one in the acid rain
Kneel at our bedsides, speak to god we pray
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from the cop
Born to run from the border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
Fight Like Hell lyrics - Anti-Flag
Who we are, how we trust and love
Where we stay, what we choose, who we fuck
Are we not enough
The walls have ears, your ears have walls
Set up to fail, to take the fall
Are we not enough
Bite your tongue to kill the mundane
Grind your teeth to get through one day
Weather out the storm just to save some time
Fight like hell just to stay alive
Survive the test of time
Woah, woah
The barricades close the street
But open the way
Our only chance is to be free
To participate
Watching culture pattern like the weather
Our words in the wind like a feather
Are we not enough
Are we still not enough
Bite your tongue to kill the mundane
Grind your teeth to get through one day
Weather out the storm just to save some time
Fight like hell just to stay alive
Survive the test of time
Survive the test of time
Woah, woah
Survive the test of time
Woah
Who we are, how we trust and love
Where we stay, what we choose, who we fuck
Are we not enough
