You're a Rebel
Rebellion Unleashed: A Struggle for Pride and Justice
Lyrics
Backed up against the wall
Feeling cornered and pressured
The animal makes his final stand
The individual faces a decisive moment
He spits and growls and shows his teeth
Expressing defiance, aggression, and hostility
He's a foreigner in his own land
Feeling like a stranger or outsider in one's own country
When there's nowhere else to run
In a situation with no escape
You're a rebel
Characterized as a rebellious figure
No more battles to be one
No more battles left to fight, suggesting exhaustion or resignation
You're a rebel
Reaffirming the rebellious nature
Stands out there with his pride
Standing proudly despite challenges
Fights with no one on his side
Fighting alone without support
You're a rebel
Reiteration of being a rebel
Without mercy the pack descends
Describing a merciless attack by a group
Hear the cries of justice are in his defense
The cries for justice are in defense of the individual
With a smug satisfaction they strip him bare
The attackers take satisfaction in humiliating the person
They kill the soul that should have flourished there
The attackers destroy the person's inner spirit
When there's nowhere else to run
Reiteration of being trapped with no escape
You're a rebel
Reaffirming the rebellious nature in a hopeless situation
No more battles to be one
No more battles to be won, emphasizing defeat
You're a rebel
Emphasizing the rebellious spirit in adversity
Stands out there with his pride
Standing proud despite being alone
Fights with no one on his side
Fighting without support
You're a rebel
Reiteration of being a rebel
You're a rebel and not a winner
Labeling the individual as a rebel, acknowledging non-winning status
You're a fighter and now you're bloodied
Characterizing the individual as a fighter, now wounded
You're a rebel and not a winner
Reiteration of being a rebel, emphasizing non-winning status
You're a fighter and now you're bloodied
Characterizing the individual as a fighter, now bloodied
You're a rebel and not a winner
Reiteration of being a rebel, acknowledging non-winning status
You're a fighter and now you're bleeding
Characterizing the individual as a fighter, now bleeding
Without mercy the pack descends
Describing a merciless attack by a group (repeated)
Hear the cries of justice are in his defense
The cries for justice continue to defend the individual (repeated)
With a smug satisfaction they strip him bare
The attackers take satisfaction in humiliating the person (repeated)
They kill the soul that should have flourished there
The attackers destroy the person's inner spirit (repeated)
