Lyrics

They come into our life not even listening, baby
Long hallways dressed in gold to justify the souls that they've sold

We'll start a revolution and bring them to their knees
You know that this will be a shakedown, a shakedown baby
We'll start a revolution and bring them to their knees
You know that this will be a shakedown, a shakedown baby

Our eyes are open so synthetic suits have no where to go
Our eyes are open so synthetic suits have no where to go
No facist lies, or censored cries
Cause now's the time for us to rise
We'll burn their bibles and starve their families
So a word to the wise "don't fuck with us"

We'll start a revolution and bring them to their knees
You know this will be a shakedown, a shakedown baby
We'll start a revolution and bring them to their knees
You know this will be a shakedown, a shakedown baby

Gonna be a shakedown. gonna be a shakedown
Gonna be a shakedown. gonna be a shakedown

We'll start a revolution and bring them to their knees
You know that this will be a shakedown, a shakedown baby
We'll start a revolution and bring you down
You know that this will be a shakedown, a shakedown baby
