Lions
Some day when the war is finally won
After all the damage has been done
You will look around and have to ask yourself
Did you wake up with the lions
Or did you just stay asleep?
Someday when the truth has been revealed
After all the effort to be healed
You will see the wounded everywhere you go
So wake up with the lions
Don't let yourself stay asleep
Wake up to the crossfire
Wake up from the lies
Wake up from fear that's covering up your eyes
Wake up from the hate
And wake up to the cries
Wake up as a warrior fighting for what's right
Wake up as soldier
AND Wake up with the lions
Wake up!
Wake up!
Wake up!
Someday when the dark has been destroyed
Broken by the rebel girls and boys
You'll be looking back and have to ask yourself
Did you fight for it with lions
Or did you just stay asleep?
So will you wake up with the lions?
Or will you just stay asleep?

"Gates Behind The Bars"
The wimp's on the loose
He's bought all the land
He's out for revenge
To hurt every man
He'll print all the food
And drug every kid
Pretend like he's good
Then hide what he did
Nobody's safe
Nobody's safe
Nobody's safe
'Til we have gates behind
Gates behind the bars
The geek's in control
He's changed his disguise
His chemical world
Will be your demise
He's sick and he's cruel
And acts like he's God
Speaks on the stage
While zombies applaud
Nobody's safe
Nobody's safe
Nobody's safe
'Til we have gates behind
Gates behind the bars
He's coming for you
His plans at the door
He's climbed through the windows
He's part of the war
He deals in the dark
And buys his own truth
He'll package it up
And he'll sell it to you
All the sheep will believe
Afraid they will die
Trapped by the one
Who has wrapped them in lies
The creep's not alone
He plots with his friends
The forum they have
Is a circle of sin
There's snakes all around
Who traffic and kill
They'll dope up the world
With needles and pills
No body Is safe
Nobody's safe, Hey Hey
No body Is safe
'Til we have gates behind
Gates behind the bars
No body Is safe
No body Is safe, Hey Hey
No body Is safe
'Til we have gates behind
Gates behind the bars

"Fight For You" Lyrics:
Through the madness and the lies
As they’re holding back the truth
No matter what they try
I will always fight for you
I will save your innocence
They are trying to remove
I am here at your defense
And I will always fight for you
Yes I will always fight for you
I will stand here in the way
And I will not give up on you
I will shield you from the pain
In the battle on the field
There is evil on the move
But I hope that you can feel
That I will always fight for you
In the darkness of the times
There’s a light that shines the proof
It’ll soon reveal the crimes
So I won’t stop this fight for you
Yes I will always fight for you
I will brave every attack
And I will not give up on you
I will always have your back
So to every single mother, father
Stand up for your sons and daughters
Do not back down, don’t let up
You are all they have for armor
So make this a war to win
Look in their eyes and tell them
That I will always fight for you
I will stand guard at the gate
And I will not give up on you
I will stop each shot they take
Yes, I will always fight for you
I will always fight for you

Lyrics:
Sad little man sitting deep in a lie
He’s dead in his soul but he’ll keep you alive
Do what he says, not what he do
‘Cause the truth is for him and the lie is for you
Sad little man but he’s treated like a God
As the faithless pray to a fake and a fraud
Worship the man, pledge to his word
One shot, two shot, now you get a third
Sad little man
Sad little man
You better run now while you know you can
Sad little man
Sad little man
You don’t fool me you sad little man
Sad little man gonna trap you like a dog
Put your head in a net while they eat you raw
Don’t ask why, just comply
‘Cause fear is the drug that the doc prescribed
Sad little man, you can watch him on the news
Preaching to his choir while they learn the rules
Some feel safe and some feel healed
But they’ll all hold his hand as he makes the kill
Sad little man
Sad little man
You better run now while you know you can
Sad little man
Sad little man
You don’t fool me you sad little man
Sad little man and he wants your kids
Some might live while the rest get sick
So put them to the test and listen for the yell
When the truth comes out he’s gonna burn in hell
Sad little man
Sad little man
You better run now while you know you can
Sad little man
Sad little man
You don’t fool me you sad little man
You can’t fool me you sad little man

Lyrics:
This just in
Another liar on the news
Standing at the pulpit
Ready to abuse
This just in
Another coward in control
Scared by the sounds
So he hides in a hole
He’ll call on the guards
To trample the crowd
‘Cause the louder they get
They silence his power
Shame, blame, no matter what they say
Don’t let the bastard get to you
He’s going to try to shut us down
But we’ll stand our ground
Hey, this just in, he’ll lose
This just in
Another villain on the screen
Acting like a hero
For all the drama queens
This just in
Another black painted face
Lathered in his virtue
Enslaving every race
He’ll send out the troops
And freeze the accounts
Says the freedom you get
Is what he makes allowed
Shame, blame, no matter what they say
Don’t let the bastard get to you
He’s going to try to shut us down
But we’ll stand our ground
Hey, this just in, he’ll lose
If you look in his eyes
You can see he’s afraid
So fragile inside
While the town’s on parade
Shame, blame, no matter what they say
Don’t let the bastard get to you
He’s going to try to shut us down
But we’ll stand our ground
Hey, this just in, he’ll lose
No he’ll never shut us down
‘Cause we’ll stand our ground
Hey, this just in, you lose

"Anti-Fascist Blues" Lyrics:
Everybody head down, pick yourself a pronoun
Join the resistance on government assistance
Stop all the hate as you advocate violenceBlock and suppress anyone you want silenced
Take what you want ‘cause what you want is what you’re owed
Call everyone a fascist ’til they’re all controlled
Preach in the street for the communist party
Pro choice, no voice, never mind the heart beat
Dictate, race bait, agitate, mandate
Dress in drag and burn the flag then run to find a safe space
Tell us how you feel until we give you what you need
Call everyone oppressive ’til they’re on their knees
Impeach free speech, better dye your hair pink
TV, phone screen, it’s better if you don’t think
Debt to university, segregate diversity
Give yourself a ribbon every time you face adversity
Find another problem, tell yourself you’re not alone
Tell everyone who’s straight that they’re all transphobe
Defund police. No guns, oh please
Fight for your right to start a war until there’s no peace
Take it down, tear it up, it’s in the name of progress
Make the rule you never lose ’til everything is lawless
Tell me what to think, and how to feel, and where to go
‘Cause everyone’s a fascist ’til they’re all controlled
Find your path in life but make it socio or psycho
Nonsense, wokeness, you’re gonna lose your mind though
Bigotry, insanity, an ally, or an enemy
There’s too much masculinity so wave goodbye to family
Represent the one percent who want to overthrow
’Til everybody lives to an autonomous zone
Act tough, steel stuff, smash another window
Loot store, get more, grab another brick, throw
She/Her/He/Him/They/Them/Xe/Xem
Women are the men now and the men are now the women
Make yourself a slave until you feel like you are free
Dig yourself a grave for The American Dream

Lyrics:
"Silent War"
Somebody’s selling a new religion
Somebody’s selling a lie
Somebody wants all the strife and division
That’s driving us out of our minds
They’re telling the world not trust their own eyes
They’re telling the people they’re wrong
They’re keeping the truth for their power and gain
And taking whatever we’ve got
And some of you eat all the lies you’ve been fed
Some of you just go along
Training acceptance inside of your head
To give them whatever they want
You’re leaving your brothers and sisters behind
You’re told it’s the best thing to do
You’re shutting out friends ‘cause you’re told that’s what’s right
Now they win because all of us lose
And it’s so sad
Watching these times as they change
And it’s so bad
The battle’s been violent and strange
As they lock us indoors
In a prison of this silent war
Now someone is trying to sell you the cure
The same one who made the disease
And they’ll try to convince you and make you feel sure
But hey, there ain’t no guarantees
They covered your mouth and they’ve tied back your hands
They did it to all of the kids
And nobody knows all the damage that’s done
And won’t ask until the master permits
And it’s so sad
Watching these times as they change
And it’s so bad
The battle’s been violent and strange
We all shout behind doors
In a prison of this silent war
So take back your freedom
And fight for your life
Stand up before it’s all gone
Take back your freedom
And fight for your life
Stand up before it’s all gone
‘Cause it’s so sad
Watching these times as they change
And it’s so bad
The battle’s been violent and strange
We can’t let them take more
We can’t let them win this silent war
So take back what is yours
Do not let them win this silent war

LYRICS:
Hey Joe
Where you going with that gun in your hand?
You’ll strip the right from an American
But leave it locked and loaded for the Taliban
Hey Joe
Where you going with that blood on your hands?
I heard you say it, it was in the news
You’re the President, the buck stops with you
Now there ain’t no mommy and there ain’t no dad
‘Cause you wrapped them up in the American flag
13 kids, but you stopped a war
And there ain’t no sense in going back for more
‘Cause hey Joe, we did it, 81 million votes!
Hey Joe
Where you going? Why you moving so slow?
They’ll prop you up for the TV screen
But forget your job, what flavor ice cream is that?
And hey Joe
Where you going? Do you even know?
C’mon on man, not a joke
Here’s the deal, the country’s broke
You ain’t no leader and you ain’t the boss
You wonder around like you’re f**cking lost
So check your watch, turn your back
Set us up for the big attack
‘Cause hey Joe, we did it, 81 million votes!
Hey Joe
So where you going with that gun in your hand?
And hey Joe
Where you going with all that blood on your hands?

Lyrics:
You can hate me, try to break me
Talk me down and denigrate me
You can try to silence every word
But I will not be leaving quietly, no
I won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly
And you can mock me, try to out smart me
You can shame me and try to blame me
You can do your best to shut me up
But I will not be leaving quietly, noI won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly
I’m gonna stand here
And I’ll fight for every word
I’m gonna shout the truth
Until you know it’s heard
I’m gonna stand here
And I’ll fight for every word
I’m gonna shout the truth
Until you know it’s heard
You can scold me, attempt to control me
Ban me and censor and label and troll me
You can push me and try to kick me out
But I will not be leaving quietly, no
I won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly
And you can mute me,
Strike and dispute me
Dumb down the rest, yea, but I’ll keep refusin’
You can pretend like you’ve seen the last of me
But I will not be leaving quietly, no
I won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly
I’m gonna stand here
And I’ll fight for every word
I’m gonna shout the truth
Until you know it’s heard
I’m gonna stand here
And I’ll fight for every word
I’m gonna shout the truth
Until you know it’s heard
You can hate me, try to break me
Talk me down and denigrate me
You can try to silence every word
But I will not be leaving quietly, no
I won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly, no
I won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly, no
I won’t leave
I won’t leave
I will not be leaving quietly

Lyrics:
GOD HELP US ALL
Lock down all towns
Everybody slow down
Give ‘em everything you have
Mask up, vax up
Get your body trashed up
Better do what they ask
It’s alright, okay
Sorry, but ya can’t pray
Gotta keep the church doors closed
No superstitions
A saint politician
Will tell ya what you need to know
Citizen fools
And brand new rules
Make everyone a hero now
So keep your distance
No resistance
Only do what you’re allowed
Cash that check
Go dance in the wreck
But just don’t speak your mind
Get your facts from the paid contracts
‘Cause never would they tell a lie
They don’t know me
And they don’t own me
Oh God help us all
Look what we’ve become
Oh God help us all
And fix what we have done
See no evil
Bow to the needle
Didn’t we turn out great?
Sick is the new health
Poor is the new wealth
Truth is whatever they say
Expert lectures
Media protectors
Tell me who to love and hate
Jail in the network
Hail to the Zuck-burg
Head down, just behave
Liberty, freedom, angels, demons
Someone’s in control
(Well) no way, no how
I wouldn’t say it too loud
Don’t you know they’re on patrol?
Need more likes
Post up, let’s fight
There’s no way that you’re wrong
Gott listen to the science
‘Cause it’s all about compliance
You agree or you’re gone
They don’t know me
And they don’t own me
Oh God help us all
Look what we’ve become
Oh God help us all
And fix what we have done
Sell my info
Hacked in, don’t know
Show me what I need to buy
Sex consumption, no corruption
Just as advertised
You’ve been labeled
And I’ve enabled
Better apologize
Propaganda
Racist slander
Time to organize
Shot, bang, who’s next?
Brain dead, useless
Show it on the TV screen
Tell me who to vote for
Gotta to start a new war
Wouldn’t want to live in peace
Divide and Conquer
Weak, not stronger
Everybody know your place
Do it now, won’t hurt
Dig into your own dirt
Virtue found it’s grave
They don’t know me
And they don’t own me
Oh God help us all
Look what we’ve become
Oh God help us all
And fix what we have done
Incite violence
Enforce silence
Mainstream message
Won’t you guide us?
You know what is best
For our own good
Anti-this and anti-that
Cancel this and cancel that
Take it to the streets
And the neighborhoods
Worship actors
Food and drugs
Brand yourself
Give them your blood
Don’t believe your eyes
Don’t look around
Fake news, rumors,
Ok boomer
Ignorance will stain our future
Will ya make it through
Or burn it down?
Oh God!
Oh God!
Help us all
Oh God!
Help us all
Oh God!
Oh God!
Help us all
Oh God!
Help us all
Oh God!
Oh God!
Help us all
Oh God!
Help us all

And you broke joke woke folk
Think you're gonna save the day
You've gone outtayerdaminde, kids
Nobody cares about what you say
So you scream "oh please, look at me!"
Living through an iPhone TikTok dream
Rate me, date me, grade me, pay me
Begging for attention, boo hoo
You've gone outtayerdaminde, kid
Nobody cares about what you do
Want to play the victim?
Want to be the hero?
Lookin' like a miserable confused weirdo
Think you've got it figured out for everybody else
When you don't even know yourself
All your selfies ain't no revolution
They're slowing down our evolution
I s'pose I need to apologize
And if I don't you'll hope and wish I die
Oh cool, another rule
Made up by a teenage rebel who loves
Big tech, big pharm, big gov, big laws
Gonna talk about it on their new blog
You've gone outtayerdaminde, kid
Nobody cares 'bout what you want
So you cry "not true, I'll fact check you"
Getting your opinion approved
By some desperate, faceless, nameless, brainless,
Intern writer for the fake news
Hey, you're outtayerdaminde, kid
Nobody cares about what they say
Think you got a voice?
Think you got a choice?
Think you're something special
In the corporate white noise?
Tweet this, post that, gram this, Tok that
Swipe left, tap here, tube this, not that
You think that they're on your side?
They only share what they decide.
You're just part of the corruption
That's peddling crap for mass consumption
Oh geez, you labeled me
You're tolerance is so extreme
Which one do I get to be?
A fascist, bigot, or nazi?
You're outtayerdaminde kid
'Cause I don't care 'bout what you think
Oh my, heavy times
Everybody's angry, living lies
And you broke joke woke folk
Think you're gonna save the day?
You've gone outtayerdaminde, kids
Nobody cares about what you say
You've gone outtayerdaminde, kid
Nobody cares about what you say
You've gone outtayerdaminde
Nobody cares about what you say

"On March 20th 2021, exactly one year after governments around the world introduced unparalleled restrictions on the lives of their citizens, a world wide rally for freedom was held..."
I edited this together using clips from the film "The Pushback" by Oracle Films which you can and should watch now on Odysee.com. I think it's a supremely important documentary, especially if you haven't been paying attention to worldwide events outside of mainstream news. The song is a version of Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down" I recorded a few years ago. I found it appropriate to pair with the footage here. Enjoy.

"Jesus... What Happened To Us?"
written by Bradley James Skistimas
Shut your mouth, get in line
Just behave or pay the fine
They're pulling on your backbone
And taking out your spine
They want you weak, don't speak
Don't question, don't think
Keep staring at your smart phone
Get dumber every week
Now give up your freedom and shush
Oh Jesus, what happened to us?
Leave the church, kill your faith
Judge the skin and learn to hate
Make yourself the enemy
But call yourself a saint
Learn the rules, be a fool
Remove your kid from school
And apologize for everything
Apologize for you
Now give the TV all of your trust
Oh Jesus, what happened to us?
Mark, Jack, Bill, Joe
They'll tell you what you need to know
They give you your permissions
And tell you where to go
Lights, camera, action, edit
We're so pathetic
You believe it 'cause you watched it
You believe it 'cause they said it
Now everybody stay home and rust
Oh Jesus, what happened to us?
We used to stand and fight
We had a voice alright
We had a life worth living
We had a damn worth giving
Now we're watching it fall
That's the truth of it all
So shut your mouth, get in line
Just behave or pay the fine
They're pulling on your backbone
And taking out your spine
They want you weak, don't speak
Don't question, don't think
Keep staring at your smart phone
Get dumber every week
Don't nobody put up a fuss
Oh Jesus, what's happened to us?
Oh Jesus
Jesus, what happened to us?
