[Verse 1]

With the rejects and lonely, I blend

With the beggars and junkies I welcome the pain

Of a life as a target of blame

For the outcast who wouldn't align

With the ruthless unfairness that rules on our time

For the wolves, driven out by the lambs

You're mistaking the crook for the honest

While you're building your homes far away from us

Raising walls to keep us on the outside

Of your meaningless life

[Chorus]

Fire up your guns

To honor the ones

Who walk on the edge of the light to follow their cause

Fire up your guns

Defying the kings

For the word that they preach is the wound that is making us bleed

[Verse 2]

I break my bread with the thieves

I share my wine with the villain you fear

To be cursed by the ones you revere

The weak and the bullied we are

The tyrant is feeding us crumbs from his hand

Celebrate a disheartening life

[Bridge]

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 3]

Dishonesty cracks in the light

Necessity forces the proud to be humble

Failure in life purifies

Dependency dampens the wild

Inequity weighs down the motion of progress

Life isn't just to survive

[Chorus]

Fire up your guns

Light up the flame and they will hear

Let anger be the voice that speaks

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

Born as a shade in the dark

Like a stain of shame on the flag of our cultural pride

Are we all unaware of our loss?

For a part of our kin we refuse to relieve and condemn to exile

[Chorus]

Fire up your guns

To honor the ones

Who walk on the edge of the light to follow their cause

Fire up your guns

Defying the kings

For the word that they preach is the wound that is making us bleed

Fire up your guns
