Lyrics
Raise your fist (raise your fist)
Raise your fist in a gesture of defiance or protest
Against the power (raise your fist)
Direct the raised fist against those in positions of authority
Oppress the power that exists
Challenge and resist the oppressive forces that currently hold power
Raise your fist (raise your fist)
Reiteration of the call to raise one's fist against power
Against the power (raise your fist)
Continuation of the call to oppose authority through a raised fist
Oh the power that exists
Emphasize the existence of the oppressive power being confronted
In the land of freedom, I will make a clean
Expressing a commitment to making a clean break in the land of freedom
Forth rack on production (?) this is all insane
Comment on the absurdity or irrationality of the production process
Heart of the heartland or they stream the blood
Referencing the heartland and the flow of blood symbolically
Where invisibly, for one thousand and third
Highlighting an invisible struggle lasting for a significant period
Raise your fist (raise your fist)
Repeat of the call to raise one's fist against authority
Against the power (raise your fist)
Reiterate the need to oppose and resist those in power
Oppress the power that exists
Reinforce the idea of confronting and challenging existing power structures
Raise your fist (raise your fist)
Repetition of the call to use a raised fist in protest
Against the power (raise your fist)
Continue to emphasize opposition to authority through raised fists
Oh the power that exists
Reiterate the acknowledgment of the oppressive power being resisted
No alliance, sure no cross to bear
Reject the idea of forming alliances or bearing unnecessary burdens
No crack to follow, no police to share
Deny following a predetermined path or submitting to law enforcement
Apathetic revolution, people go put to sleep
Describe a revolutionary stance marked by apathy or indifference
As the people are wake up they'll be rioting the streets
Anticipate a shift in public consciousness leading to street protests
Raise your fist (raise your fist)
Repetition of the call to use a raised fist to oppose authority
Against the power (raise your fist)
Reiterate the need to direct the raised fist against those in power
Oppress the power that exists
Emphasize the necessity to challenge and resist existing power structures
Raise your fist (raise your fist)
Repeat of the call to raise one's fist against authority
Against the power (raise your fist)
Continue to stress the opposition to authority through raised fists
Oh the power that exists
Reiterate the acknowledgment of the oppressive power being resisted
