Rise Rebel Resist
Otep Song Lyrics

Perfect little spouses

In perfect little houses

Its family fun time

Lets commit a hatecrime

...if I can't be loved,

Then I'll be hated

I'm disconnected

I'm uninspired

I'm burning in water

I'm drowning in fire

I'm trapped inside my mind

Beneath these piles of stinking life

You use this abuse to keep me conquered

You're so absurdly common

Vacan't faces

Brainless strangers

Sputtering, stuttering insect language

I'm the creature you created

Everyday I grow jaded

Calloused and exaspered

If I'll never be loved

Then I'll be hated

I'm the one of the freaks, the faggots, the geeks, the savages, rouges, rebels, dissident devils, artists, martyrs, infidels...

Do we sit still

Under attack

Or do we start pushing back?

Never back up

Never back down

And fight

Rise, rebel, resist

Rise, rebel, make a fist, resist

Rise, rebel, resist

Rise, rebel, make a fist, resist

I'm human pollution

I covet retribution

I'm just a big mistake

A defect you can subjugate

Your ridicule is just typical antics

Spineless, mindless, tragic, fanatic

Puritan, bigot, lunatic, hypocrite

To save my soul from disaster

Self destruction could be the answer

If I'll never be loved

Then I'll be hated

I'm the one of the freaks, the faggots, the geeks, the savages, rouges, rebels, dissident devils, artists, martyrs, infidels...

Do we sit still

Under attack

Or do we start pushing back?

Never back up

Never back down

And fight

Rise, rebel, resist

Rise, rebel, make a fist, resist

Rise, rebel, resist

Rise, rebel, make a fist, resist

Masochistic

So sadistic

All they see is another statistic

Maybe I'm a misfit, maybe I'm different

It will never be an average existence

Masochistic

So sadistic

All they see is another statistic

If I can't be loved

Then I'll be hated

Its family fun time

Lets commit a hatecrime

War war

Rise, rebel, resist

Rise, rebel, make a fist, resist

Rise, rebel, resist

Rise, rebel, make a fist, resist

We are the freaks, the faggots, the geeks, the savages, rouges, rebels, dissident devils, artists, martyrs, infidels...

Do we sit still

Under attack

Or do we start pushing back?

Never back up

Never back down

And fight

War war
