Pledge resistance To the flag That bears the blood Of the worlds oppression A bullet or ballot box - What holds our future? Waiting as our country rots - What did I say to you What do you have to believe? - What more do we want to see? What's keeps me in line? - What do I really need? I can't f**in' breathe (X2) Total resistance Pledge resistance To the flag That bears the blood Of the worlds oppression State your number - State your function There is only one purpose - For which you exist "Can you ever be rich enough?" - We are the mercy of the sheep There's no air to breathe - We coat our lungs with dollar bills I can't f**in' breathe (X2) Total resistance This rhythm can beat down oppression! This is the sound of empowerment! --- I scream for the future! --- What will be my function today? RESISTANCE! I fight for a dream And I dream of a f**ing fight Cut that sh** I won't consent - To the social control And I won't consent - To the rape of the soil So no longer look at me - As a cog in the machine In a world with no choices - I've chosen to be free I can't f**in' breathe (X2) Total resistance Pledge resistance To the flag That bears the blood Of the worlds oppression It's not my flag! (X4)
