We the Ones Songtext
von Organized Noize

If we don′t stand up, we fall down
Without exception, this matter reaches terminal velocity
We the ones who fight
So I speak for reception of this philosophy
Fight, test your might
We the ones who fight
We the ones who fight

Stand up to oppression
Stand up to all aggression
Stand up, it's time to choose
So your children will never lose
Stand up, you know what′s right
Stand up with all your might
'Cause you know that


We the ones who fight
All I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on
We the ones who fight
Said all I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on
We the ones who fight
All I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on

Stand up to bloody preaching
Stand up to bad policing
Stand up, the time is on
We are together and we are one
Stand up, you know what's right
Stand up with all your might
′Cause you know that

We the ones who fight
All I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on
We the ones who fight
Said all I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on
We the ones who fight
All I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on

Elevated thinking, higher learning
And nah, I ain′t talking 'bout the cookie that I′m burning
My sermon is for the children


And for the mamas and the daddies that ain't earning
Now CVS is burning, but that′s just superficial on the surface
The people up in arms 'cause they killing us on purpose
So now they pray for calm ′cause America is nervous, ya heard me?
Thank you for your service, maggot
From a family of military vets
My granddaddy and daddy, them were military, yes, yes
God, God bless the dead, protect the living
And give us the spirit to keep on killing 'cause

We the ones who fight
All I know is to keep on going
Just continue to carry on, carry on
We the ones who fight
Said all I know is to keep on going

This fist that I cuff tight no longer enough
For this fight between darkness and light
We must test our true might
No time for the ones who might
Only the strongest willed that will desire
To instill righteous fire in those they've sired who fight

This a new flight plan
A plighted course of truth, not fiction
No longer is the focus the irrelevant friction
Between the yellow, the red, the black and white man
We seek the true source, speak with a new voice
Time′s up, can no longer afford the expense of giving you choice
We now demand compliance, can′t withstand defiance
Clear your soul and mind of pseudo-science and archaic premises
There is no right defense, you're either with me or nemesis

We the ones who fight
