Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Out on the streets where the shadows creep,
People are rising, we’re waking from sleep.
They’re coming for us, with badges and might,
But we’re standing strong, ready to fight.
They filled our towns with broken backs,
Homeland Security on the wrong tracks.
ICE and CBP pushing us down,
But we won't back off; we are the town.
[Chorus]
I fought the law, and we’re taking a stand,
Fighting the law, for the people of this land.
We’re tired of the terror and the pain they inflict,
Together we’re strong; we’ll never be kicked.
[Verse 2]
The nights grow long in this fight we own,
Heartbeats louder than the sirens’ moans.
In every corner, hear the brothers and sisters yell,
“We are the answers, standing up to hell.”
With courage ablaze, we’re drawing the line,
Side by side, we’re crossing that vine.
Rallying voices, they can’t keep us low,
We’re breaking these chains; it’s time to let go.
[Chorus]
I fought the law, we’re reclaiming our pride,
Fighting the law, can’t let it slide.
United we gather; we won’t be denied,
Together as one, we’re turning the tide.
[Bridge]
Their forces are heavy, but our spirits are high,
The cries of the people, they never die.
From cities to farms, we’re taking a stand,
We’ll rise from the ashes, reclaiming the land.
In dark corners, we find our might,
As long as we’re fighting, we’re winning this fight.
[Verse 3]
So come take a look at the many who’ve bled,
But fear’s not our compass, we’ll march ahead.
With banners raised high, we break through the walls,
For justice and freedom, we answer the calls.
In the heart of the storm, we’re making our way,
For tomorrow we stand, we’re here to stay.
[Chorus]
I fought the law, now I’m taking my ground,
Fighting the law, we won’t back down.
With fire in our hearts and truth in our hands,
Together we’ll conquer, united we’ll stand.
[Outro]
We’re rising, we’re gritting, we won’t let it fall,
We fought the law, and we’re standing tall.
The spirit of freedom will never decay,
Fighting the law, in our own righteous way.
