Renegades

Reese Roper

[Verse 1]
The lobbyists are mustering
And congress filibustering
Procrastinating, delegating
Multitudes are suffocating
And the bullets sing
"Oh let freedom ring"
A rerun in the next school
Dismantle it for miniscule
Another senseless tragedy
Is blotted out by apathy
From the trading floor
They watch their profits soar

[Pre-Chorus]
Sing you myths of laissez faire
Close your fists you billionaires
Hide behind the forefathers
Close your eyes to our sons and daughters
As we whisper lullabies
Jеsus Christ, don't let them die

[Chorus]
Rеnegades--we'll be tearing down your barricades
Renegades--hear the riots from your motorcades
(Renegades)

[Verse 2]
The congressmen are concubines
For lobbyists who feed them lines
Who Frankenstein some pantomime
Some crying over Columbine
Yes your capital
It swarms with cannibals
When some other people's kids are shot
They chalk it up as afterthought
They load their guns and reminisce
And tell us it's just business
They hope we overlook
The halls at Sandy Hook

[Pre-Chorus]
Sing you myths of laissez faire
Close your fists you billionaires
Hide behind the forefathers
Close your eyes to our sons and daughters
As we whisper lullabies
Jesus Christ, don't let them die

[Chorus]
Renegades--we'll be tearing down your barricades
Renegades--hear the riots from your motorcades
Renegades--huddled masses storm your palisades
Renegades--make your fortune while the daylight fades

[Bridge]
And the Son of God
You call the Prince of Peace
You want His worshippers
To make your sales increase
And the Son of God
All clothed in righteousness
You want His followers
But not the pacifists
You want your ledgers black
We want our children back

[Chorus]
Renegades--we'll be tearing down your barricades
Renegades--hear the riots from your motorcades
Renegades--huddled masses storm your palisades
Renegades--make your fortune while the daylight fades
(Renegades)
