Welcome to a place where wrong
Is our regent
Equity is just a clown
Diversions amuse us
We've gone through hell, saw it all
Though we're still lost
Looking for someone to blame?
Take a look inside
I've been so lonely out here
Bloodshed, raw deals made in my name
My green is rusting to black
The chains of dread have been locked
For quite so long
For far too long
My crown is falling apart
My fire is lifeless and dark
Light it up now
Let's light it up now
Or stop calling me liberty
Our brave soldiers leave their homes
"To fight for our freedom"
But they've just been deceived again
While some others get a check
With Superstores and all your malls
Thirst gets insatiable
The worst prison is the one
They call "freedom"
I've been so lonely tonight
Killings, slaughters under my eyes
My green is rusting to black
The chains of dread have been locked
For quite so long
For far too long
My crown is falling apart
My fire is lifeless and dark
Light it up now
Let's light it up now
My green is rusting to black
The chains of dread have been locked
For quite so long
For far too long
My crown is falling apart
My fire is lifeless and dark
Light it up now
Let's light it up now
Or stop calling me liberty
Politicians kiss your flag
While they're spitting on your country and constitution
Retribution, rightness
All our books have been adapted, modified
Whole chapters vanished
Just to make us go to war for their oil, gold and soil
Should I even write this song?
My pen is bleeding
Thousands come here everyday
Playing the patriot game
Well, has your boy heard the guns?
Cause you chose the whipping
It's time for you to hold the torch
And set the road on fire
My green is rusting to black
The chains of dread have been locked
For quite so long
For far too long
My crown is falling apart
My fire is lifeless and dark
Light it up now
Let's light it up now
Let's bring our glory days back
Remember what we were
Hear not fear words
Hear not weak minds
Question all we believe
Crushing the prison we're in
Light it up now
Let's light it up now
Or stop calling me liberty
