The Way It Is
Rebellion Unleashed: Defying the System through A Global Threat's Anthem
Lyrics
Help me, these kids have escaped the life I condemned them to live
Expressing regret and seeking help as the speaker realizes the harsh life imposed on the youth.
I am the law of the youth I'm armed to control not protect
Acknowledging authority but emphasizing its control rather than protection.
Childhood's spent in school to teach them the ways of the world
Highlighting the traditional education system shaping the worldview before facing societal challenges.
Then send them to work and to war cause this system's what they reject
Condemning a system that sends youth to work and war despite rejecting it.
I feed them my morals to live to live for the state and the organized church
Instilling moral values for the state and church, suppressing individual thought.
Anyone who thinks for them self is different and doesn't belong
Stigmatizing independent thinking, considering it as deviance.
These kids are rebellious and now they need to be stopped right away
Calling for the suppression of rebellious youth due to their dissent.
They have no respect for the and their will to live is too strong
Noting the defiance of the youth, lacking respect for authority.
Fuck you you bastards
Expressing anger and disdain towards those enforcing oppressive norms.
They don't want a revolution
Rejecting the idea of a revolution, suggesting a desire for systemic change.
But a change in power's the only solution
Advocating for a change in power as the only viable solution.
Take your laws away
Demanding the removal of oppressive laws and restrictions.
Fuck the world and fuck my peers I won't forget the past 18 years
Reflecting on the speaker's past 18 years, expressing frustration and defiance.
And I won't regret the rest from this
Asserting a lack of regret for breaking free from societal constraints.
Order was established for us, decisions made before we were born
Describing the establishment of order and decisions imposed on individuals.
That's how it is and how it will be we live in conditions we hate
Accepting disliked conditions while emphasizing the possibility of change.
The next generation is here. we don't have to live by their rules
Empowering the next generation to reject existing rules and norms.
Respect and compassion are void, but for us it's not too late
Acknowledging a lack of respect and compassion, but implying room for change.
Fuck you you bastards
Reiterating anger and disdain towards those upholding oppressive norms.
The way it is, is the way it was and the way it will stay
Accepting the current state as unchangeable, criticizing passive acceptance.
Just because so many of us want to accept it without a fight
Challenging the acceptance of the status quo without resistance.
Fight back for your right to live any way you want to be
Encouraging resistance for the right to live freely and individually.
Fuck those who refuse to accept your individuality
Expressing contempt for those who reject individuality and diversity.
Fuck those who control our future, mentally beating us down
Denouncing those controlling the future and causing mental oppression.
Let's show all those fucking stiffs, that we're in deep but we won't drown
Resolving to show resilience in the face of challenges and not succumb to them.
Fuck you you bastards
Reiterating anger and defiance towards those enforcing oppressive norms.
Take your future back
Encouraging reclaiming control over one's future and destiny.
