Martyr
Unveiling Your True Protest: Martyrdom Beyond Words
Lyrics
What you consume, is your true protest.
Your true form of protest is reflected in what you choose to consume.
Each dollar you spend, supports what you detest.
Every dollar you spend contributes to and supports things that you oppose or detest.
Martyr, for your cause X(3)
Repeated emphasis on being a martyr for a cause, possibly implying self-sacrifice for a belief.
You fail to see your flaws.
You overlook your own shortcomings or mistakes.
This is not your war. X(3)
This conflict or struggle is not truly yours to fight, emphasized by repetition.
But do you know, what you claim to stand for.
Questioning the depth of understanding about what one claims to stand for.
You're really not so free from blame. X(2)
Despite claiming innocence, you are not entirely free from responsibility or fault.
I see no wrong, in taking a stand.
Expressing support for taking a stand on issues.
But do you really know for what you stand? You cannot
Questioning the depth of understanding behind the stand one takes.
Claim to resist, and walk this chosen path.
You cannot claim to resist and follow a particular path if you are unaware or ignorant.
When you are unaware, and the same as those you blame.
If you are similar to those you blame, your resistance may lack authenticity.
You're not a matyr, you cannot be the one. X(4)
You are not a true martyr; you cannot genuinely sacrifice for the cause, repeated for emphasis.
