[Intro]
In this quiet town, echoes speak, the truth we can't refrain

[Verse 1]
Here in this world, there’s so much strife,
People aim to rule each moment of our life.
Promises broken, facades wearing thin,
But we can’t let them bury where our hopes begin.

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s getting dark, and shadows loom,
But we won’t let them seal this room.
We’re standing tall, hearts strong and free,
For every one of us, there’s unity.

[Chorus]
We’ll take it back, with votes or bullets,
They’ll make the choice, let’s make sure they’ve heard it.
We will retake our country, let your voice resound,
With brothers and with sisters, together, we stand our ground.

[Verse 2]
In the streets everywhere, the people rise,
A peaceful force beneath the open skies.
But still, they try to quiet our anthem loud,
With ICE deceiving, lurking in the crowd.

[Pre-Chorus]
Still, we won’t fold, we won’t be denied,
For the dreams of men and women who bravely died.
Through every struggle, our spirit shines,
We’ll rise to fight, ‘cause truth is in our lines.

[Chorus]
We’ll take it back, with votes or bullets,
They’ll make the choice, let’s make sure they’ve heard it.
We will retake our country, let your voice resound,
With brothers and with sisters, together, we stand our ground.

[Bridge]
The time has come to claim what’s ours,
With every heartbeat, we’ll chase our stars.
Give up the reign of silence or die in the fight,
Like our fathers before us, we’ll make it right.

[Chorus]
We’ll take it back, with votes or bullets,
They’ll make the choice, let’s make sure they’ve heard it.
We will retake our country, let your voice resound,
With brothers and with sisters, together, we stand our ground.

[Outro]
For every dream that met the night,
We’ll rise to fight for all that’s right.
With votes or bullets, we’re ready to strive,
That’s the sound of freedom, keeping hope alive.
