Otep - To The Gallows lyrics

This is a song for the heretics
To resist the dictatorship come on!

While you're checking your timelines
I'm on the front lines
Commanding the dissidents
Subverting the paradigm
They used to shoot fascists
Like rabbit's in baskets now the White House
Is infected with madness

So the battle goes so we can overthrow
And so the battle goes come on!

Blood on your hands blood on your suit
Does your necktie feel like a noose
Blood on your hands blood on your suit
We'll walk you to the gallows
You can choke on the truth
Blood on your hands blood on your suit
Does your necktie feel like a noose

This is a song for the heretics
To resist the dictatorship come on!

He's just a morally corrupt demagogue
Who's in lust with his daughter
So he pays porn stars to dress like her
But beware you can piss in his mouth
You can piss anywhere but "Watch my hair"

So the battle goes so we can overthrow
And so the battle goes come on!

Blood on your hands blood on your suit
Does your necktie feel like a noose
Blood on your hands blood on your suit
We'll walk you to the gallows
You can choke on the truth
Blood on your hands blood on your suit
Does your necktie feel like a noose

Traitor!

Does your necktie feel like a noose

I told everyone but they wouldn't listen
Now there's orange fingerprints
Upon the ignition
On the verge of World War 3
And you pretend it isn't
I tried to warn y'all but you wouldn't listen
Now he's inciting riots with nazi terrorism
But we ain't afraid of his evangelism
The Kult of 45 is mentally deficient
Together we will send them back to perdition
Together we will send them back to perdition
(To the gallows)

You've mistaken the ravens
For heavenly angels
They've come to pick your bones
As you swing from the gallows

(To the gallows)

It's time to pick a side
Who controls your mind? Who controls you?
Who controls you? Who controls you?
Who controls you?
