We fall from what we knew from what we were From what they made us from the herd They move like smoke to choke Us with their words To judge us for our worth This time they’ll never see us crawl They know how one gets back into the fold Silent agreements all untold They know the rules That no one speaks out loud The rules we broke by being strong Never again We’ll never be like them We’ll never wield their knives again For we have learned from every scar Of weaknesses in their hollow hearts Of how the masses cut the few And carve their hatred into you Never again We’ll never be like them We’ll never wield their knives again This time they’ll never see us crawl So rise up This is our way / the truth we made
