Chad Calamity & the Cars That Go Backwards - Stand Down

I'm all about the can't stop won't stop
running through your roadblocks
burning all our bridges and I won't get off my soapbox
scream loud but we never get our throat blocked
Won't stop until there's no borders no gates no locks
Still get pissed on the weekend
So What
See the trolls but don't tweet them
So what
I'm just trying to open your eyes
So what
Trump said there's bad on both sides
You know what
You don't have to act tough to be radical
There's no time to lose we're not taking a sabbatical
I'd rather chase community over capital
It's dog eat dog now everyones a cannibal
Leaves a foul taste that can't get washed away
Them pushing that agenda have lost their way
This is my cross to bear it's not a costume mate
How much did your sense of self cost today
Don't look up look around
That boy there will let us down
Heavy is the head that wears that crown
Get out sit up speak up or stand down
Don't look up look around
That girl there will let us down
Heavy is the head that wears that crown
Get out sit up speak up or stand down
Stand down rudeboy stand down
If you've got a question put your hand down
You really think you were gonna stand out
Cause you suffered in silence then randomly shout
And you wonder why nobody listens
Hold up
They're getting hold of your vision
Hold up
You say you're never gonna give in
Hold up
You can ask for permission
I wouldnt get your hopes up
They're not special don't put them on that pedestal
They're not special the melody is general
They're all frauds and the felony is federal
And they can't be cured because the remedy ain't medical
Are you on a wind up?
Make your mind up
Form an opinion
Hold a sign up
Or do you just wanna be part of the line up
Better think fast
Times up
Don't look up look around
That boy there will let us down
Heavy is the head that wears that crown
Get out sit up speak up or stand down
Don't look up look around
That girl there will let us down
Heavy is the head that wears that crown
Get out sit up speak up or stand down
You can call it superstition
I have a suspicion
Ticking that petition didn't make a bit of difference
You can call it superstition
I have a suspicion
Ticking that petition didn't make a bit of difference
You can call it superstition
I have a suspicion
Ticking that petition didn't make a bit of difference
You can call it superstition
I have a suspicion
Ticking that petition didn't make a bit of difference
Because they formed an alliance with tyrants
Under the guise of keeping an eye on the violence
While they keep supplying not even hiding
And they profit from your silence
They're locking up the brightest
Calling them pirates because they didn't get a licence
You really think they didn't want to play with their new toys
They're just waiting until you give them an excuse boy
