Revolution

P.O.D. · Payable On Death [2003]

More calm than a heartbeat that flatlines

Quiet like a dark street, under the moonlight

[A phrase of action that's been screamed by the guts of men]

[Ever since their first experienced injustice, prejudice, discrimination]

A word louder that a gunshot

And softer that a baby's laugh

It will pass, just like it always has

[Until it spits off the lips the next man who's had it up to here]



Chorus 1:

Did somebody say a revolution?

Or is it all in my head?

Is that what it takes to make a solution, your revolution



[And Not the first or the last to imagine it]

Acknowledge the concepts, question and grasp it

[Rebel against the I, and bring down the self]

Mutiny Me! Overthrow You!

Rebellion starts within

The time is now!



Chorus 2:

Did somebody say a revolution?

Or is it all in my head?

Is that what it takes to make a solution (solution)

Did somebody say a revolution?

Or is it all in my head?

Is that what it takes to make a solution?

[Your revolution (Your revolution)]



Bridge:

Purple skies, devil eyes, hypnotize

Little lies, compromise, fireflies

Samurais, parasite, fly by night, after life, materialize

[Look alike, stereotype, do or die, lullabies, black and white]



Chorus 3:

Did somebody say a revolution?

Or is it all in my head? (your revolution)

Is that what it takes to make a solution (solution, your revolution)

Did somebody say a revolution?

Or at least it's been said (your revolution)

I that what it takes to make a solution?

Your revolution (no resolution)

Your revolution (what's your solution?)

Your revolution (no substitution)

Your revolution (no resolution)

Your revolution (not your solution)
