Antifascist
Defying Hate: Embracing Unity in Total Massacre's Antifascist Anthem
Lyrics
It's not complicated
Expressing that the concept is straightforward.
I think it's pretty obvious
Stating that the message is clear.
If you see a fucking Nazi
Indicating a strong reaction against encountering a Nazi.
You're gonna knock his fucking block off
Emphasizing a willingness to confront and oppose Nazis violently.
I refuse to believe we don't all believe in the same things
Challenging the idea that people don't share common beliefs.
And equality and justice outta be the rule, not the exception
Advocating for equality and justice as universal principles.
I'm an antifascist and you're an antifascist too
Identifying as an antifascist and extending the label to others.
If you're not you'd better watch out
Warning those who are not antifascists to be cautious.
We're coming for you
Asserting a collective effort against those who are not antifascist.
Every person you meet, at the bar, on the street
Conveying shared dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs.
Is just as sick as you are of all this shit
Highlighting a common feeling of discontent among people.
Every person you know
Emphasizing the humanity of individuals.
Has a heart and a soul and a voice
Acknowledging the fundamental qualities of individuals.
And it's time we use it
Advocating for using one's voice for change.
But if you can stand up and put your hand out
Encouraging helping others and taking a stand against injustice.
And help somebody else off the mat
Suggesting that assisting others is more meaningful than indifference.
Then you've just done more
Attributing value to active support compared to passive neutrality.
Than any fencewalking asshole ever has
Criticizing those who remain neutral in the face of injustice.
I'm an antifascist and you're an antifascist too
Reiterating identification as an antifascist.
If you're not you'd better watch out
Repeating the warning to those who are not antifascists.
For the 1917 crew
Mentioning a group, possibly historical, associated with antifascism.
