Nerv (feat. Oli Duncanson) Lyrics

In the wake of oppression
The silence speaks for itself
Yeah let it speak for itself

And yet again we're met, with the same twisted resolve
Whitewashed with a bitter apology
Years of disdain forced to drown in the shallows
Promised the light but we're kept in shadow

Altercation in the name of fractured faculties
Led to believe they lead with our best interests
Force fed agenda
Progression is sickness

Let's take up arms and draw a line in the sand
Cause we will not be silenced
Reckless in a state of disrepair, but yet we're still singing
We will not we swayed
Forever waiting for our happy ever after
We will not be swayed
We stand together united for change
A stalemate society always destined to break
But in the wake of oppression, the silence speaks for itself

And after it all
They would have you believe that, death was necessary
United they fall
With blood on their hands
They'd rather bury the truth rather than let it all linger

I see the facts slowly slipping asunder
Not gods, not kings
Just corrupt cowards who created the problem

I won't stand idly by
And watch history repeat in twenty twenty vision
And what gives you the right, to dictate who should live and who should die?

I just don't wanna be afraid anymore
The times have changed, you gotta hear me out
Late nights, fear the bright lights of curtain call
Can't live like this, no not anymore
Center stage for a better tomorrow
We can't be allowed to go back
Ever again, never again

Let's take up arms and draw a line in the sand
Cause we will not be silenced
Reckless in a state of disrepair, but yet we're still singing
We will not we swayed
Forever waiting for our happy ever after
We will not be swayed

Raise your firsts and cast out your pain
Be the voice to action the change
Raise your fists and cast out your pain

Raise your fists and cast out your pain
Cause things can never be the same again
Things can never be the same

Let's get it
I just don't wanna be afraid anymore
We will not live in fear anymore
And in the wake of oppression, the silence speaks for itself
