Three Bastards - Poisöncharge

Yesterday I told my sons Sometimes the bad guys win And that it made me scared about the world that we live in But I had to reassure them that it wouldn't be for long Sons we have to be ourselves We have to be strong I said, Boys you are the future, so let this be a lesson There may come a day you have to fight off their aggression Cause fear and hatred won today, the darkness ate the light But both of you look in my eyes, it'll be all right In every step you take I'm with you all the way Cause I would die for you And do what's right for you In hopes that when I'm gone You'll carry on These words I wrote for you 'Til then... I'll sing Stand your ground Don't let the bastards grind you down Be bold, be strange Don't let their fears make you afraid There's hope They'll change Well I looked out to the world today, thought What a bloody mess! They stripped our morals from us, put 'em under house arrest Liberty and country are the words they need to speak A little God, a little freedom, if we don't agree we're weak And every politician stood there idle and so smug Empowering the racists and Second Amendment thugs Wall Street and the billionaires, convinced us they're so smart Screaming, Vote with your wallets, instead of with your hearts! But we won't go away! You won't forget our name! The pussy generation, the PC and the brave The protesters that slink along these streets of misery And so... I'll sing Stand your ground Don't let the bastards grind you down Be bold, be strange Don't let their fears make you afraid There's hope, we'll change We'll change We'll change No, no, no, no, no We say, No, no, no, no, no Fuck no! No, no, no, no, no Fuck no! So give us all your fuckers, all your niggas, and your spits Give us all your Muslims, the so-called terrorists We'll welcome 'em with open arms and put 'em in our mix We're better off together now, embrace our difference Remember there is love! Our words can stop their guns Forget the rednecks Living in the past We're never going back now, we've reached critical mass! And so... I'll sing Stand my ground Won't let the bastards grind me down I'm bold, I'm strange Won't let their fears make me afraid There's hope, they'll change

This is a conquest Hitting faces, metal through your bones Fitting favours, now i'm lying here in my own blood Follow me into the darkness Let me be your guide Falling in a hole with a gun in your hand The City is burning in the night Gimme your racing heart It's feeling like a ticking bomb Fitting favours, now i'm lying here in my own blood Welcome to my sick world It's getting rough Blood flows in the darkness They don't care, give up Feeling like a maggot I will try to stand the ground Living through the day Dying has never been so much fun Are you ready Get the fuck up Becoming nasty Cause the good boys are dying first We are standing in the neon lights Listen to the traitors words Welcome to my sick world It's getting rough Blood flows in the darkness They don't care, give up Feeling like a maggot I will try to stand the ground Living through the day Dying has never been so much fun Do you wanna join the party Raise your fucking fist Do you wanna join the party Common common common Welcome to my sick world It's getting rough Blood flows in the darkness They don't care, give up Feeling like a maggot I will try to stand the ground Living through the day Dying has never been so much fun

I hope this finds you well A father lost and mother dear The family that's kept me here Hard lesson learned, and I've learned it well How to lose everything How to push you away How to lie when I say "I never raised a hand to the ones I love." Now look at how You beg and pray For your god and his grace To keep you safe To save you from me My broken spirit and back My calloused, shaking hands The ache I carry in me My grief and skeletons The weight you carried inside A weight that held my bloodline Black out the sunlight I count these burdens as mine And still all you see is that bastard in me Believing in hell A father lost and mother dear The family that I squandered here Hard lesson learned, and I forgot it all How to lose everything How to push you away How to lie when I say "I never raised a hand to the ones I love." But I remember how You begged and prayed For your god and his grace To keep you safe To save you from me My broken spirit and back My calloused, shaking hands The ache I carry in me My grief and skeletons The weight you carried inside A weight that held my bloodline Black out the sunlight I count these burdens as mine And still all I see is that bastard in me
