Lyrics
Intro
They told us the world was fair
They told us justice waits somewhere
I watched the truth dissolve in air
Right before my eyes
Verse 1
I see the rich walk through the flame
While the weak get left behind
Some are born with golden keys
Some are born without a chance to fight
We hear the promises every day
But the lies remain the same
They stack their towers to the sky
While we carry all the weight
Pre-Chorus
How long
How long will we stay quiet
How far
Before we break the quiet
Chorus
No justice
No mercy
No more lies
Push us to the ground
But we will rise
No justice
No mercy
No more fear
When the system turns its back
We are still here
Verse 2
Another name erased from the page
Another promise turned to ash
Another voice ignored by power
Another soul denied the chance
Rules for them
Pain for us
They call it order
We call it unjust
Pre-Chorus
How long
How long will we stay quiet
How far
Before we break the quiet
Chorus
No justice
No mercy
No more lies
Push us to the ground
But we will rise
No justice
No mercy
No more fear
When the system turns its back
We are still here
Bridge
Maybe justice isn't given
Maybe justice must be taken
Maybe the world won't change
Until someone refuses to break
I have nothing left to fear
I've already seen the worst
So let the darkness come
I will still stand
Final Chorus
No justice
No mercy
No more lies
You can push us to the ground
But we will rise
No justice
No mercy
No more fear
You can try to bury us
But we are still here
Outro
The world may be broken
But so is our silence
And when silence breaks
Everything changes
