"Cut A Tooth" lyrics

Outrage and justice different shades of grey
The hand of power fuels the fist of rage
To conquer the odds and to overthrow the mighty
The meek must fortify a message without mercy

I don't want to go through the pain they say I need to
I just want to break the system that we've been chained to
I believe in the burden and the struggle to cut a tooth
But how many will lie to hide the truth?

It's too critical now to look away and spare the trauma
Surrender to the anger to feel the injustice
Expose the weakness at the risk of finding fear
Because denial and compromise only leave us stuck here

I don't want to go through the pain they say I need to
I just want to break the system that we've been chained to
I believe in the burden and struggle to cut a tooth
But how many will lie to hide the truth?

Persecute the behavior that's accepted because it's learned
And refuse to concede when conflict is deserved
Freedom isn't real until all misfortune is heard
And progress is meaningless built on empty words

I don't want to go through the pain they say I need to
I just want to break the system that we've been chained to
I believe in the burden and struggle to cut a tooth
But how many will lie to hide the truth?

I don't want to go through the pain they say I need to
I just want to break the system that we've been chained to
I believe in the burden and struggle to cut a tooth
But how many will lie to hide the truth?
