Burning For Recognition
When the world gets you down
Just gather some friends
Bring torches and gasoline
Spread the world to paint the town red and black
Just burn and go and no looking back
Char the roads and all in your way
Show what you're made of
Show off your warm blooded nature
Give back the push you were given
Take back all what little you were to live in
Shackle down all your belongings
Raid the towns that push you away
Give back the loathing to those deserving
Fight back before you step back
Be strong enough to quit being a welcome mat
Show the world how strong you can be
Come along and stand by me
I will show you how to retain
Teach yourself how we can remain
Be more then what they want you to be
