  • Elected to the show and our freedom never knows
    How is who and where to why we fail
    Those who are in charge in controlling who we are
    When there's nothing we can even fucking do, up rise stronghold

    Fight for survival, fighting for your life
    We're fighting for the reptiles
    Freedom of speech, freedom of lies
    They tell us what we want to hear, it happens all the time

    Does it mater what the people say, hey
    Does it matter to you, who
    Does it mater what the people say, hey
    What do the people want to do

    Feeling no devotion, the final vote is in
    People have elected, the incumbent to win
    The time is for reprisal, time to incite
    'Cause there's nothing we can even fucking do, up rise stronghold

    Putting it together and forcing them to fight
    Bringing home the reptiles who bled the world dry
    Seeing through their speeches and reading through their lies
    They show us what we want to see, it happens all the time

    Does it mater what the people say, hey
    Does it matter to you, who
    Does it mater what the people say, hey
    And there's nothing you can do

    Up rise stronghold

    What is the price you'll pay, no need to beg or borrow
    Is there a better way will our children see tomorrow
    Don't live in yesterday, so take the lead not follow
    Forever holiday, we have the final say

    Up rise stronghold

    Feeling no devotion, the final vote is in
    People have elected, the incumbent to win
    The time is for reprisal, time to incite
    'Cause there's nothing we can even fucking do, up rise stronghold

    Fight for survival, fighting for your life
    We're fighting for the reptiles
    Freedom of speech, freedom of lies
    They show us what we want to see, it happens all the time

    Does it mater what the people say, hey
    Does it matter to you, who
    Does it mater what the people say, hey
    What do the people want to do Writer/s: Cole Young, Jon Mcrae, Wayne Paul Peterson
