Righteous Riot
Unveiling the Rebellion
Lyrics
Open this gate
Call to open up an entrance or access point
Stop this masquerade
Stop pretending or hiding behind a facade
You know it's time
Indication that it's the appropriate moment
No more alibis
No more excuses or justifications
No more fun
No more enjoyment or pleasure
You can try
One can attempt, but escape is impossible
But you can't run
Acknowledgment that fleeing isn't an option
You can't hide
There's no way to conceal
Wait, there's somethin' in the way
Obstruction preventing progress or entry
Jamming the gate
Something is blocking the gate
Holding the righteous riot
Refers to a gathering or upheaval for a just cause
Say, do you wanna play
Asking if one desires to participate
This is your fate
Implying inevitability, an unavoidable destiny
Why would you try to fight it now
Questioning the point of resisting at this moment
Climb on over
Suggesting climbing over an obstacle or challenge
And then you win
Success is achieved
Do it with a grin
Doing so with a positive attitude
Make it fun
Make the experience enjoyable
Grab a limb
Take hold or grasp a part of it
They can't run
Their inability to escape
So come on in
Invitation to join in despite obstacles
Wait, there's somethin' in the way
Again, an obstruction blocking the gate
Jamming the gate
Same as line 10, obstacle holding back progress
Holding the righteous riot
Reiteration of a just and rightful upheaval
Say, do you wanna play
Questioning willingness to engage
This is your fate
Reasserting inevitability
Why would you try to fight it now
Questioning the purpose of resisting now
If I was you I'd run
Advice to escape or avoid the situation
Run
Repetition emphasizing the urgency to run
Now
Immediate action is necessary
Wait, there's somethin' in the way
Same as lines 9 and 22, an obstruction
Jamming the gate
Repetition of the hindrance at the gate
Holding the righteous riot
Reiteration of a just and rightful upheaval
Say, do you wanna play
Asking if participation is desired
This is your fate
Indicating an inevitable destiny
Why would you try to fight it now
Questioning the purpose of resisting at this point
Here comes that righteous riot now
Anticipation of the just upheaval approaching
Oh, try to fight it now
Encouragement to attempt resisting despite difficulty
