Propaghandi - Showdown Lyrics
We spoke our minds too clearly.We assumed fundamental rights were inherentNot as pawns but humyns.I do not require a gauge for freedom of speechCuz I never asked to be a citizen.I never have and never will pledge allegiance.Waking up each morning with confusion in my eyes.The wind is biting through to wave hello.Seeing my reflection, an exterior of lies.I hope this shaky feeling doesnt show.As if I had to tell you there was little left to say.Stilted conversations colored blue.You were sitting down and you got up to walk away.I tried to stay but I was right behind you.Tension in the stair, I cannot bear so close to helplessAs this song I sing. inside me ring.Final words are boring, never touch,I know you whispered something in my ear.I couldnt hear you.Girls with the greenest eyes. the first time you have kissed.Our quiet softest sighs.A song for all of those who shot and missed.Welcomed to this world, imputed identity.Born, tagged, tattooed, pacified.Generously bestowed my rights and privileges replete.Arbitrary values ascribed.Theres nothing I can tell you. theres nothing I can say.Stunted conversation, censored thought.Im completely free, at liberty, guaranteedUnless of course you decide Im not.But Ill not be resigned to, fall in line behind you.Tension in the air I cannot bearSo what the ***** am I accomplishing? absolutely nothing.All these words are boring, its time for action.But youve taught me to be a pawn.It wont last for long.Those who see through the lies are quickly gagged and bound.Ambition realized, tear the whole *****ing thing down.
