Clenching The Fists Of Dissent Lyrics - The Blackening - Machine Head

Crawl, crawl 

Do you hear revolution's call? 

Time to fight our own denial 

Warmongers keep us locked in fear 

Invoke the past, a moment of tears 

An ugly truth put forth by our youth 

Under the threat of patriotic brute 

So use your rage 

It is a weapon we all must engage 

Let trumpets sound our call 

Or by their lives we will fall 

Gnash down our teeth in hate and sing 

Sing revolution's song 

Whey they say die 

Die for America

War 

They say that freedom isn't free 

It's paid with the lives of sons and families 

'Cause blood is their new currency 

And oil pumps the heart of money 

So fight as one without a fucking gun 

Words are the bullets to this revolution 

Use your pain 

The battlegrounds, the streets are ablaze 

Excess will pave their path 

The winds of change, our bloodbath 

Gnash down our teeth in hate and sing 

Sing revolution's song 

When they say die 

Die for America 

Power and prejudice 

Actions they use to pit against 

Terror, insurgency 

Words used to scare conformity 

It's propaganda, it's their hypocrisy 

Free to choose our own slavery 

All suffer humanity, fuck 

[Incomprehensible] 

Fight, fight, fight, fight 

Fight, fight, fight, fight 

Fight, fight, fight, fight 

Fight, fight, fight, fight 

So fight for all that you love 

(Fight, fight, fight, fight) 

Scream, choking with foot open throat 

(Fight, fight, fight, fight) 

Blind star spangled eyes 

(Fight, fight, fight, fight) 

Death, no more the truth you will hide, no more 

(Fight, fight) 

So how do they sleep? 

While our mothers weep 

They're selling our souls 

(They're selling our souls) 

And our blood for oil 

Our generation can be the fucking one 

That overcomes the greed of corrupt nations 

Have no shame 

You're not alone in thinking, this is fucking insane 

Rise up and take your stand 

You curl the fingers of your hand 

I don't know what to do 

'Cause I don't have the answers 

With every ounce of strength 

I'll vow to fight the cancer 

Didn't say I want to lead 

I just might let you down 

Didn't say believe in me 

Just hold this common ground 

I'm just as lost as you 

And probably more confused 

So fucking far from perfect 

My mind wrecked from abuse 

There's something fucking wrong 

When war takes sons and daughters 

Our lambs misled to slaughter 

War 

Clenching the fist of dissent 

Lies 

Clenching the fist of dissent 

Fear 

Clenching the fist of dissent 

Changed 

Clenching to hope
