letra de an ode to the 517 - morgan madden

capital dreams and centralized nightmares
looking for some? you can find them both right here
ready to access, no purchase is required
these people around here are looking to be inspired
they’ve sweat and bled and broken their backs
weary souls sick of all these character attacks
they’re not dumb, not lazy, not down nor out
they’ll rise to the occasion. they’ll scream and they’ll shout
we’re here godd-mnit and we’ve got what it takes!
you can feel their hearts tremor just like earthquakes
but you won’t see their nerves shake. they’ve got ice in their veins
but warmth in their hearts, gears turning in their brains
the world would have you think we’re a shadow of what we once were
paralyzed with fear and entirely unsure
of how to keep up with contemporary influence
we’ve been here all along. what do you think that we’ve been doing?
clock in, go to work, clock out, go to our homes
like we’re industrialized robots or mindless drones?
follow these rules, absorb all these lessons
or life will cut you up like biology cl-ss dissections
instead, we stand against these notions
our people and our area are more worthy of our devotions
we’ll instead find ourselves clothed in support for each other
we’re all family together, born from the same mother
whether we’re blood or adopted
we’re all from here originally or co-opted
there’s no stoppage to be found from amongst these people
go around the world and you’ll find no equal
you’ll find good, you’ll find evil, you’ll find things that are neutral
look all over, seek whatever, but absorb the truth though
label us how you will, call us what you like
we’re poised and ready, waiting to strike
while the iron’s hot
ready for our shot
redemption, reinvention, the stakes can’t be higher
there’s grit in our guts, in our soul there’s a fire
that burns, no, rather rages
we’ll be the ones writing our own pages
give us a chance to show you what we’re made of
we’re not looking for someone to come save us
we’re perfectly capable of rising from these ashes
soldiers coming headlong to best life’s clashes
we’ve been through highest highs and lowest lows
we’ve taken all of life’s toughest blows
we’ll be here still; noc conditions withstanding
growing, working, learning, better understanding
we are who we are that’s never going to change
we can achieve greatness within our range
whether we’re strange. whether we’re normal
blue collar, white collar, casual or formal
is this h-ll or is this heaven?
we are who we are: we’re the 517
