Artist in Progress - Crossing Swords

You say you stand for strength in unity
Yet show no concern for equality
Act as if people are your property
We see you judge a book by its cover
Define people by race, faith or gender
You'll soon hear the sound, if you do
Of us crossing swords with you

You say you stand for strength in individuality
Yet you consume without paying fairly
Act as if everything's your property
You care only about your own satisfaction
Indifferent to consequences of your actions
You'll soon hear the sound, if you do
Of us crossing swords with you

We will always battle against
Your narrow-minded way of thinking
No matter how much ground you gain
We will not let you threaten our way of living
We will always strive against you

So you think you can take whatever you please
So you think that you're invincible, well, think again
We will never give in
We will never give up

Now that we've found ourselves
To be at swords point
We seem to be blindsided
As a new deadly force
Is closing in on us
Taking anyone down
So easily
It chills to the bone

But how can we beat this
If we both point a sword
At two enemies at once
We cannot beat this
Unless we both point a sword
In the same direction for once
To strike down this common foe
We have to forge a three-edged sword
Together

So you think we could defeat whatever we please
Yes if we join forces we'd be invincible, so think again
We would never give in
We would never give up

We are gonna beat this
Only if we drop this
Attitude of superiority, hostility, bigotry
Yeah, we are gonna beat this
If both of us just take up
The sword for sympathy, solidarity, empathy
Let's wield our swords as one
To fight this plague of destructivity
Together, 1-2-3-4, now
