lyrics

What lives we lead, so desperate; where hope’s a liability.
Our leader lost to his cowardice: He bent the knee, and we will pay the price for it…

Just you wait and see.

It’s only something human, reaching for the one:
The voice we know should lead us, not lip-serve us and run.
We know when we are lied to; we see that we’re betrayed.
You let the puppets count you out and seal us in our fate.
You let the system break you, when we needed you most.
History will be the judge when we look back on your ghost.
This revolution fell without a shot; you melted away.
We’ll have to lead ourselves for now to break from this dismay.

There is no other way.

We’ll have to lead ourselves to break from this dismay.
There is no other way; we won’t do what you say.

We’ll have to lead ourselves, on course we have to stay.
There is no other way to break from this dismay.
We’ll move past your deceit. We’re too far for retreat.
We will not bend the knee. We will not bend the knee.
No token change will do. We have to see it through.
It’s not just for our sake, our race and world’s at stake.
It’s more than just belief, the numbers truly speak.
We will not bend the knee. We will not bend the knee.
