Resister

She Drew The Gun

Oppose the flow, or take the role
They're only asking for your body and soul
And your mind is not your own
Until you comprehend their forms of control

All the underdogs, black sheep, fighters of the powers that be
In tenements, high rises, freedom fighters, the outsiders

'Cause some of us are healing
And some of us are feeding a pain
And we just need to speak it
So we can proceed again

Hey sister, don't let your heart close its fist yeah, yeah
You got to, get up up be a resister
You got to, get up up be a resister

Sometimes it's too much you know
And now I know they've got you feeling down low
But there's one way to dig ourselves from this hole
'Cause t-t-t-true change only comes from below

Breeze riders, occupiers, residing
In otherwise sidelined quarters
On doorways, on corners, and borders

'Cause some of us are healing
And some of us are feeding a pain
And we just need to speak it
So we can proceed again

Hey sister, don't let your heart close its fist yeah, yeah
You got to, get up up be a resister
You got to, get up up be a resister

Hey sister, don't let your heart close its fist yeah, yeah
You got to, get up up be a resister
You got to, get up up be a resister

The slackers, the sleepless, the homeless, the loners
Sex workers with a service, street workers risking murder
On council estates reclaiming space, from ethical leaders
And we just need to speak it so we can proceed again

Hey sister don't let your heart close its fist yeah, yeah
You got to get up up be a resister
You got to get up up be a resister

Hey sister don't let your heart close its fist yeah, yeah
You got to get up up be a resister
You got to get up up be a resister
You got to get up up be a resister
You got to get up up be a resister
