lyrics

I tried with words of reason
But it was out of season
You laughed and that is all
I played by your own rules
I used all those legal tools
Yet you’re the one to make that call
So mercenary media
With dodgy criteria
Said it was all in vain
And government officials
With pompous inicials
They all had their way

So it comes down to this
The snake can always hiss
But lion remains mute
And if he shakes his bangs
And if he shows his fangs
We are in dispute
So may it be as you please
You don’t wanna ease
So I’m forced to proceed
You made me to step out
With my arms, crying out
It wasn’t hate - it was need

You may call me terrorist
Someone who won’t be missed
But I am not the one
You killed thousands legaly
I ‘ll take one and all they see
Is a thug holding gun
I was never Bible belter
Or migrant seeking shelter
I was born and raised here
Our story’s near the end
Better make your last amends
Your end is getting near

So it comes down to this
The snake can always hiss
But lion remains mute
