Lyrics
Now itʼs starting again
Commencement of a new phase or event
And I donʼt think it ever ends
Suggesting an ongoing, persistent nature of the situation
If you pay no mind, then youʼll find a time
Ignoring the issue may lead to a time when there's nothing left to protect or support
when thereʼs nothing left to defend
Implying a need for active defense or preservation
The people march to a beat
People uniting with a common purpose
Time to take this fight to the street
Advocating taking the fight to the streets, suggesting a public, visible protest
With a cause and voice, you can make a choice
Encouraging individuals to use their voice and make choices in support of a cause
who to help and who to defeat
Empowering individuals to decide who to support and who to oppose
Revolution Red
Reference to a revolutionary movement or moment called "Revolution Red"
See the fires up ahead
Visualizing imminent conflict or upheaval
Itʼs our destiny, give me liberty or baby give me death
Expressing a desire for freedom, even at the cost of one's life
Now time to decide if our dreams will live or die
Decision time on whether dreams will succeed or fail
Take a stand with me, or give up and leave
Encouraging others to take a stand or face consequences
And kiss your rights goodbye
Choosing between defending one's rights or losing them
Now youʼre stuck in the fray, and itʼs past the point to explain
Being caught in a chaotic situation beyond explanation
You can stand and fight, or lay down and die
The choice between resistance and surrender
Give it up, or give it your best
Either give up or give the situation your best effort
Everyones has a plan, till they take a punch to the head
Highlighting the unpredictability of challenges
You can have resolve, or youʼll lose it all
The importance of determination in the face of difficulties
And you wonʼt have the choice to fight back
Emphasizing the consequences of losing the ability to fight back
Revolution Red
Reiteration of "Revolution Red" and the impending conflict
See the fires up ahead
Visualization of approaching turmoil or struggle
Itʼs our destiny, give me liberty or baby give me death
Reaffirmation of the desire for freedom, possibly at the cost of life
Now time to decide if our dreams will live or die
Repeating the decision-making process regarding dreams
Take a stand with me, or give up and leave
Encouraging solidarity or facing the consequences of abandoning the cause
And kiss your rights goodbye
Reiteration of the potential loss of rights if one gives up
Now youʼre face to face with the other side
Facing an opposing force directly
now time to bring out your brothersʼs strength or you will fall just like the rest
Calling for inner strength in the face of adversity to avoid defeat
Well nowʼs the time when ideology comes crumbling down and youʼre alone
Time when beliefs or principles crumble, leaving an individual isolated
And the apathy is dead to me
Rejecting indifference or lack of interest
Why can't you see that action is the truth for you
Advocating for action as the ultimate truth
Revolution Red
Reiteration of "Revolution Red" and the impending conflict
See the fires up ahead
Reaffirmation of the visualized approaching turmoil or struggle
Itʼs our destiny, give me liberty or baby give me death
Reaffirmation of the desire for freedom, possibly at the cost of life
Now time to decide if our dreams will live or die
Repeating the decision-making process regarding dreams
Take a stand with me, or give up and leave
Encouraging solidarity or facing the consequences of abandoning the cause
And kiss your rights goodbye
Reiteration of the potential loss of rights if one gives up
