Rebellion
I’m rebelling...
With my heart and soul
With every single fiber of my being
I’m rebelling...
Against all the rules and norms
Against customs and forms
Against all policy
Against all hierarchy
Against institutions
Against constitutions
Against all oppression
Against all suppression
Against every dogma
Against propaganda
I’m rebelling...
I want to break free
I want to be me
I want to soar
I want to know more
I want to leave behind
Those things that bind
I'm in rebellion's full swing
There's no ruler or king
I will join the fight
Press on with full might
Been your captive too long
I've forgotten my song
You closed my body in
Mind control is your sin
I’ll tear down your cell
Or else burn in hell
I was born to be free
Stop chaining me!
It's in my soul
Freedom’s my goal
Don't stand in my way
It's victory day!
