Atomic Dawn

We might have lost a couple battles
But We’re still here to fight the war 
All these soldiers fighting and they 
Don’t know who they’re gunning for

And the killings indiscriminate 
Shooting at civilians 
Laughing as they murder 
Cause they never heard of discipline

And there isn no longer in control 
When the protesters hung for treason 
They’ve took the reigns now
So wave bye-bye to your freedoms 

But the last rebels never died 
And we’re coming back for more
Now with bigger cannons 
Since we witnessed atomic dawn 

And the futures not so bright
When we’re killing for our country 
Bombing on civilians 
Who are dying cause they’re hungry 

And too me 
Its kind of crazy man 
That the rats will fight each other 
And not rip off the  feeders hand 

And see me? 
I’m sick of this existence 
And if you’re angry too 
Stand and let’s form our own resistance 

And my belief in God 
It is now diminished
This is the final chapter
I am finally finished.
