Savage Old Bastards — We The People (Refuse to Kneel)

You wave that red flag like it means something true,
But your creed burns the stars from the red, white, and blue.
You preach equality, but you deal in control,
You trade our birthright for a government’s hold.
We know your lies — we’ve seen your plan,
To chain the heart and break the man.

Dear Communists and Socialists, hear what we say:
Your poison won’t steal our freedom away.
We won’t bow down, we won’t obey,
We’re the sons and daughters of the U.S.A.
We refuse to kneel, we refuse to break,
We The People decide our fate.

You call it progress, but it’s tyranny’s face,
You promise heaven, but you build a cage.
Our fathers warned us, they wrote it plain —
When power grows, the people bleed in chains.
You hate the truth that built this land:
That liberty lives in a working man’s hand.

Dear Communists and Socialists, hear what we say:
Your poison won’t steal our freedom away.
We won’t bow down, we won’t obey,
We’re the sons and daughters of the U.S.A.
We refuse to kneel, we refuse to break,
We The People decide our fate.

You take our guns, you take our ground,
You tax our voice ‘til we can’t make a sound.
But freedom don’t die — it just reloads,
And marches strong on a dusty road.

Private property, sweat, and pride,
That’s the freedom for which men died.
We ain’t your subjects, we ain’t your slaves,
We’re the ones who’ll dig freedom’s grave —
For you.

Dear Communists and Socialists, hear what we say:
Your poison won’t steal our freedom away.
We won’t bow down, we won’t obey,
We’re the sons and daughters of the U.S.A.
We refuse to kneel, we refuse to break,
We The People decide our fate.

We reject your chains.
We won't be your slaves.
We choose our freedom.
And, we reject YOU.
We are America — and we will never kneel.
