Nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape, FIGHT ON TILL YOU DIE!
World's ablaze, headlines bleedin' battle cries
Preachermen with empty words, they ain't payin' the price
Blame game poison in the veins, cowards pass the buck
Wrapped up in their privilege, too blind to give a f***
"Neutral ground," they call it, some kinda twisted truce
But when the storm hits, neutrality's just a loser's excuse
Safe behind their walls, slaves to their own fear
Gonna burn anyway, that fire's creepin' near
The meek inherit nothin' but the ashes of their pride
They think they're playin' safe, a pathetic masquerade inside
Scared to live is the long way to die, slow and outta sight
I choose a different path, I'm gonna stoke my fire tonight!
White picket fences, dreams bleached under the sun
Fear of the unknown got their hearts on the run
They think that ambition's a curse, a fight they cannot win
So they shrivel up, cowards from the moment they begin
Yeah, they're oh-so-smart, keepin' nightmares out of sight
But this world ain't got no mercy, it'll steal their peace overnight
"Stayin' sane," they say, like life's some kind of disease
But living half-alive is just fear in a pretty disguise
The meek inherit nothin' but the ashes of their pride
They think they're playing safe, a pathetic masquerade inside
Scared to live is the long way to die, slow and outta sight
I choose a different path, I'm gonna stoke my fire tonight!
Life's a high-wire dance, ain't no guarantees you'll land
But huddle in the darkness and you guarantee you've damned
Your voice, your fire, your one shot at the world
Like a candle in the storm, too easy to be hurled...
The meek inherit nothin' but the ashes of their pride
They think they're playin' safe, a pathetic masquerade inside
Scared to live is the long way to die, slow and outta sight
I choose a different path, I'm gonna stoke my fire tonight!
Fire, fire, watch it burn, watch it pave the way
Fire, fire, gonna raise a rebellion today
Yeah, fire, fire, gonna light the night my own damn way!
