Out on the march in the morning
He called his soldiers down
To take aim at the traitors
To gun those rebels down
Now they'll face the consequences
They held themselves above
This is the will of the people
He said

I wish I could spare them, make them see the path
Tempting as that sounds, I'll have to pass
I know what's needed for the good of my people
To save them

Out in the dark without warning
He raised his fist above
Led a cry to his people
To tear those statues down
Now they'll face the consequences
They held themselves above
This is the will of the people, he said

I wish I could spare them, make them see the path
Tempting as that sounds, I'll have to pass
I know what's needed for the good of my people
To save them

Drop your arms and march for them
Turn against the wall and bow your head
Speak your last words, let them be said
Out on the march in the morning
He called his comrades down
To take aim at the traitors
To gun those fascists down
Now they'll face the consequences
They held themselves above
This is the will of the people
He said

I wish I could find it the way to restore peace
Blessed were the days we held in vain
I'd give it all for a chance at redemption
As the cycle turns again
You've seen it before now you'll see it begin
You've seen the changes and the blood pooling
If you think it ends here, think again
