RISE AGAINST
- State Of The Union Lyrics / with translationsIf We're the flagship of peace and prosperity
We're taking on water and about to f*ckin' sink
No one seems to notice, No one even blinks
The crew left the passengers to die under the sea
COUNTDOWN, to the very end,
Equality, an invitation that we wont extend
READY AIM, pull the trigger now,
In time you'll firmly secure your place in hell
State of the union address,
reads war torn country still a mess
the words: power, death, and distorted truth
are read between the lines of the red, white, and blue
COUNTDOWN, to the very end,
Equality, an invitation that we wont extend
READY AIM, pull the trigger now,
its TIME you firmly secure your place in hell
your place in hell
your place in hell
GUILTY, is what our graves will read,
no year, no family, we did nothing (NOTHING)
to stop the murder of, of people, just like us
We're taking on water and about to f*ckin' sink
No one seems to notice, No one even blinks
The crew left the passengers to die under the sea
COUNTDOWN, to the very end,
Equality, an invitation that we wont extend
READY AIM, pull the trigger now,
In time you'll firmly secure your place in hell
State of the union address,
reads war torn country still a mess
the words: power, death, and distorted truth
COUNTDOWN, to the very end,
Equality, an invitation that we wont extend
READY AIM, pull the trigger now,
its TIME you firmly secure your place in hell
your place in hell
your place in hell
GUILTY, is what our graves will read,
no year, no family, we did nothing (NOTHING)
to stop the murder of, of people, just like us
