RESISTANCE
By Adan Torres
You don’t need to go very far to compare
Nazis bloodshed began after looking our way
Don’t let your ego blind your sight
Is our nation at stake and we must get it right
Must build parallel structures and set the norm
We must tame the lion and grab the bull by the horn
Risk and malaise must be endured
Is now up to we the people and not up to the Lord
Passive defiance has limits resistance is what we want
Nonviolent dissent brings no intent is time for us to demand
In defiant resistance we meet our goal
Compliance and obedience must be no more
Passive defiance has limits resistance is what we want
Nonviolent dissent brings no intent is time for us to demand
Organized resistance will get us there
No need for spectacles but a structural threat
(INSTRUMENTAL)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
The three percent crowd has missed the mark
Risk and resistance is our way out the dark
The talisman will ignore and not respond
The battle is won with defiant resistance and lots of demand
Passive defiance has limits resistance is what we want
Nonviolent dissent brings no intent is time for us to demand
In defiant resistance we meet our goal
Compliance and obedience must be no more
Passive defiance has limits resistance is what we want
Nonviolent dissent brings no intent is time for us to demand
Organized resistance will get us there
No need for spectacles but a structural threat
There is no fix without sacrifice
But in defiant resistance they meet their demise
The system may not self-correct
But with defiant resistance we’ll win I bet
Passive defiance has limits resistance is what we want
Nonviolent dissent brings no intent is time for us to demand
In defiant resistance we meet our goal
Compliance and obedience must be no more
Passive defiance has limits resistance is what we want
Nonviolent dissent brings no intent is time for us to demand
Organized resistance will get us there
No need for spectacles but a structural threat
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Organized resistance will get us there
No need for spectacles but a structural threat
A structural threat
