lyrics

Take your place, centerstage, where you focus all of your rage
And it feels, like you steal, when you deal in anger and fear
Play the game, fan the flame, redirecting all of the blame
And we hear, loud and clear, what you’re pumping into our ears

We’ll never fall, we’ll never submit, we’ll never give in to your cult of lies
We’ll never resign and we refuse to normalize

Polarize, hatred thrives, in a faux pious disguise
Make a deal, fake what’s real, amplify the things that they fear
Ignorance, is the stance, while you claim your innocence
Full of lies, cut and dry, anything to reach the prize

We’ll never fall, we’ll never quit, we’ll resist the cult of ignorance
We’ll never resign, and we refuse to compromise

Take your place, centerstage, where you focus all of your rage
And it feels, like you steal, when you deal in anger and fear
Play the game, fan the flame, redirecting all of the blame
And we hear, loud and clear, what you’re pumping into our ears

We’ll never fall, we’ll never submit, we’ll never give in to your cult of lies
We’ll never resign and we refuse to normalize

TRR Mix Vol. 1
by Totally Real Records

We have a track on the TRR Mix Vol. 1 compilation called "Love Song". It's got a mellow, Brian Wilson/Wrecking Crew-vibe, written & recorded by us in 2020. Some people say it's about a cat... venray
