lyrics

There's gonna be a beatdown
Walls reverberate with the sound
A rumble from the underground
Too many youth lost under the kosh
Is it any wonder they've all had enough?
Beatdown, never forget
The greatest to come has not happened yet
Four short chords to settle the score
If you wanted more, I guess this means war

So they say we are the have-nots
And our ideals are all we've got
But if we stand together with united voices
They're never gonna stop us

There's gonna be a beatdown
It's too little too late here I fear, isn't it clear?
When you choose to ignore what we've all said before
There's only so much that we can endure
Beatdown, going against the grain
Bring it all down with a crashing refrain
Look in our eyes, tell me what do you see?
What comes next don't come easily

So they say we are the have-nots
And our ideals are all we've got
But if we stand together with united voices
They're never gonna stop us

They never lift a finger, get it all their own way
They skim the top and scarper just as fast as you can say
What do you think they're seeing on their big screen now?
Where do you think they'll be when the shit comes down?
You know there's no escaping because we're coming from all sides
There's no turning back, you better run for your life
This ain't some game we play, don't make me tell you twice
We're showing our hand and we don't play nice

So they say we are the have-nots
And our ideals are all we've got
But if we stand together with united voices
They're never gonna stop us
They're never gonna stop us now
