1. From Protest To Resistance

1. From Protest to Resistance
No, there's no fucking way
That anything?s going to change
It depends on you and you know
We can protest until death, they won't listen
Don't sit back and think it will happen
They won't give up what they have robbed
Stand up and resist
But while the leaders have caught on, we see that they've prepared for civil war
While on our side we squabble about who does what and who sells more
There's women with just one reason, to fight for their equality
Forgetting the system holds superiority
First, we've got to come together, so fuck the differences
It doesn't matter if its noise or music, to them we all talk piss
To them we?re the sick farce, now lets not prove them right
If we're to stand the slightest chance, we must unite and fight
We must never give up, make sure our message ain't forgotten
That's if they won't fucking stop, then we?re gonna fucking stop them!
2. Increase the Pressure
The second album full of same old songs
Fighting back against a system which is cruel and wrong
Yet another battering ram against a wall of power
A blasphemous attack to blow the leader?s cover
It's a message from those who won't take no more
Of seeing the privileged profit from the poor
Of the scientist?s piss they call research
Of being told we?re scum and should be birched
Well bollocks to them all, keep smashing at the wall
Pile the pressure on and Government will fall
But it takes more than music and more than words
To recreate a nation that's controlled by hoards
Of police, army and fuck knows what else
That they've got waiting for the backlash from the people who care
To question their control, their dividing lines
Power must be tested, it's testing time
Power must be tested, we've heard that time and time again
But no matter how much pain and protest, nothing seems to change
The Government show forces and our movement cowers in fear
Some still strive for freedom, while others simply sneer
It's the same old racket with the same old songs
Well it's the same fucking system and it still stands strong
The battle continues so bollocks to them
Who mock our anarchy then bow their heads again
You try working for something that a system can't make
Creating something that a law can't take
Back as a loss of privilege for stepping out of line
Power ain't been tested, so now's the time to fuck them up again

CONFLICT.
THE PUNK BAND.
A GROUP OF PEOPLE.
ANARCHISTS?
A VOICE OF REBELLION.
HARDENED. CYNICAL. BASTARDS.
AN ACTIVIST ORGANISATION?
A WAY OF LIFE.
CONFLICT.
A PART OF A MOVEMENT.
THE MOVEMENT OF ALL MOVEMENTS.
THE UNGOVERNABLE FORCE.
