[Verse 1] They sold fear by the load Wrapped in suits, clean and bold 2020 cracked the mask Now the whole thing moved too fast You can feel it in the schools In the debt, in the rules Every hand on the throat Every lie that they wrote They call it order, call it peace But the pressure never ceased Kids are watching what you do So what kind of world gets through? [Pre-Chorus] Choose a side, don’t look away Small mouths need what we defend today If you bow, they learn to kneel If you stand, they learn it’s real [Chorus] Fight the tyranny Fight the tyranny Or you fail the children You fail the children Fight the tyranny Fight the tyranny Or you fail the children You fail the children [Verse 2] Hands in pockets, mouths on scripts Same old game with newer tricks They tax the bread, they price the floor Then ask us why we want more Moms work nights, dads stay broke Still they grin and call it hope But hope’s a word with teeth When you’re trapped beneath their grief So I say it plain, no disguise Look your fear right in the eyes What you build, they inherit too That’s the line they drag you through [Pre-Chorus] Choose a side, don’t look away Small mouths need what we defend today If you bow, they learn to kneel If you stand, they learn it’s real [Chorus] Fight the tyranny Fight the tyranny Or you fail the children You fail the children Fight the tyranny Fight the tyranny Or you fail the children You fail the children [Bridge] Not for pride, not for fame Not for flags, not for a name It’s the little ones in the line That’s the reason, that’s the fire Let the truth cut through the gloss Let the price be seen, be crossed If we leave them to the wolves Then we taught them how to lose [Chorus] Fight the tyranny Fight the tyranny Or you fail the children You fail the children Fight the tyranny Fight the tyranny Or you fail the children You fail the children
