In Protest

no don't look for me to raise a flag when your cities collapse

and no i won't shed a tear for the thousands who don't care about me

never thinking twice about the millions dying everywhere

'til one day it comes close to home and everyone pretends to care

flying flags of freedom well to me these flags are white

but i won't surrender to this pride i won't lean to the right

pride in race and nation can't you see it's such a joke

cause we're all born into different skin and land that we don't know

so don't take pride in where you come from but in who you are and what you do

the former's only bullshit based on choices no one ever gave you

never thinking twice about the people who die everywhere

until you see wreckage and it sends you running running scared

tell me what's a number the more it is the more they care

so if you die alone alone you're dead well that doesn't seem fair

but it's only lives we recognize that history will count

because this country couldn't give a fuck for anybody else

it doesn't matter if they die on our land or on theirs

foreign lives are no statistic when they're outnumbered by ours

pride in race and nation can't you see it's such a joke

cause we're all born into different skin and land that we don't know

so your pissing match for power is just pissing in the wind

cause the war you're for like every war's the war that no one wins
