A Point of Protest - These Hearts (In State of Protest)

Code red
Code red
Waking up the dead
Take it to the streets
We are in a state of emergency
Time to break through this
Generalized indifference
We are going to fight back
We are in a state of protest

What we carry in these hearts
Defines who we are
So this is how it starts
This is how it starts
We are taking back
What is ours

Something needs to happen
We cannot give in
And risk losing
A life worth living
Because all I see
A generation of frustrated kids
Unions sold out
Media sucked dry
Opposition beaten down
All forced to fit this
System that never cared for us
No, this is too much
We have had enough
We are fed up with this

So reap
What you have sown
We will bite the hand that has been beating us
Never to conform
We will break the line
And fuck the norm
This is a fucking movement
And you will come to understand
Your profit has a price
And we are here to collect our change

What we carry in these hearts
Defines who we are
If there ever was a time to be awake
That time is now
Decide what you stand for
Get off your knees
Get on your feet

Follow your heart not the herd
And break free
It is time to state our demands
Time we take a stand

As we stand here today
We must acknowledge what is at stake
How can one percent
Keep 99 tamed?
Our voices will be heard
The tide will be turned
We have paid the price
For your fucking crisis
To see you look down on us
You better be warned
There will no peace
Until it is for everyone

You cannot tame what is in these hearts
You cannot tame what is in these hearts
You cannot tame what is in these hearts
You cannot tame what is in these hearts
You cannot tame what is in these hearts
You cannot tame what is in these hearts
No, you will never tame
What we have
In our hearts
