[Verse 1]
G                 Bm
I live fierce-fully
Bm          G         Bm
opposed to all authority
Bm              G        Bm
Imposing my basic liberties
Bm                   G               Bm
aren’t you supposed to be protecting me
Bm                G           Bm
I can govern myself, quite easily
Bm                   G                  Bm
I know I can not accept this false reality
G                       Bm
Ohh ahhh haa ha ha ha hooah
C/G        Em                C/G
I can not speak for anybody else
C/G                           Em                          C/G
Though I have seen the common link in the similar ways we felt
            Em             D
Radical reform within myself
(N.C.)                                         G
And it starts with one and we move to one on one

                     G        Bm
Lets talk about this raging deity
                  G                Bm
Empowering these murderous vigilantes
                G                Bm
And stem from a hate based idealogy
                      G               Bm
And swearing by their manifest destinies
                                G                          Bm
These are not my founding fathers they are chauvinist thieves
                     C/G             Em              C/G
And the Ramifications of a nation built on racial prejudice
C/G              Em                         C/G
Can only be more work for a generation like this
C/G                D
To find what can bind us, if we focus
(N.C.)                                   G      Bm
and I’m losing faith so I take it day by day mmmm

                  G                               Bm
I say we tear the whole damn thing down to the ground
                G                         Bm
I say we mobilize and vindicate our loses now
                           G                    Bm
Combat the chaos with the chaos spreadin all around
                            G                    Bm                 C/G
Our mothers going to swallow us and spit us all right back out to survive

 C/G         Em          C/G                        Em
Warfare machine you will die,  by the hands of your own,
                      C/G
You’ll hang from the high-rise,
   C/G              Em                    C/G
Burning up in your flag, Wrapped in genocide
C/G            Em               C/G
No more oppressed institutionalized
C/G        Em                        C/G
May I be a vessel that carries the light
C/G     Em    C/G    Em     C/G         Em
New paradigm, New Paradigm, its on my mind
