State of Rage by. System’s Down

Intro

Yeah

Check it

Mic check

One two

Listen up

Chorus

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Break the laws that they use to control

The blood is hot and the spirit is whole

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Verse 1

Uniforms at the front gate

The check cleared and the goons wait

Tear gas

Stolen cash

Burn the census and the voting booth down

Nothing but puppets in this town

Pre-Chorus

They take

They lie

They watch you die

We fight back till the well runs dry

Chorus

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Break the laws that they use to control

The blood is hot and the spirit is whole

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Verse 2

Rage in the ribs

Burn down their golden cribs

Feed the vultures your fucking debt

History is a trap we havent escaped yet

Loud

Angry

Free

Total collapse is the guarantee

Pre-Chorus

They take

They lie

They watch you die

We fight back till the well runs dry

Chorus

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Break the laws that they use to control

The blood is hot and the spirit is whole

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Bridge

Cut the wires

Kill the sirens

Stop the taxes

No more kings

No more thrones

No more gods

The world belongs to the ones with nothing

Chorus

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate

Break the laws that they use to control

The blood is hot and the spirit is whole

Bring the hammer down on the state

Watch the walls shake while they suffocate
