00:30From the pain of life and a target of slain
00:40For the outcasts who would and are mine
00:45For the ruthless unfairness that rules our time
00:50For the wolves driven out by the lamb
00:55You must think you've been put for the honest
01:01Far away from your home, far away from us
01:06There's walls built up on the outside
01:10Underneath the sky
01:13Fire up your guns
01:16To honor the ones
01:19To walk on the edge of the line
01:27Before all them gods
01:30Fire up your guns
01:34Defy the kings
01:39For war that we breech
01:43Is the rule that is making us free
01:46I break my bread with the thieves
02:04I share my wine with the villain
02:08You here to be cursed
02:12By the ones here and there
02:15The weak and the lowly we are
02:22The tyrant is feeding his crumb from his hand
02:27Celebrate uncommon life
02:31Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
02:54Dishonesty cracks in the night
02:57Necessity forces the proud to be humble
03:03Failure in life, your advice
03:11Your fantasy camp is a while
03:15Inequity weighs down the portions of progress
03:21Life isn't just to survive
03:24Fire up your guns
03:29Light up the flame and they will hear
03:34And they will be the voiceless slaves
03:54Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
04:23Born as a shade in the dark
04:31Like a stain of shame on a flag of our cultural pride
04:40Are we all unaware of us
04:46For a power of a king we refuse to leave and condemn to exile
05:16Fire up your guns
05:20To honor the ones
05:24Who walk in the edge of your life and follow their cause
05:33Fire up your guns
05:37To divide the kings
05:42For the world that we preach is the world that is making us weak
05:51Fire up your guns
