Lyrics

Canberra, capital Where the laws are made But these rules And chains got us trapped They're a blade Politicians sit high Thinkin' they're untouchable But their power comes from the people We gotta be unstoppable Tyranny's creeping Suffocating our breath When the laws betray us We rise up instead of death So stand up in Canberra Hold your ground The time is now, don't back down We're breaking the silence Raising our voice This system's broken It's time to make a choice The law-makers claim They know what's best But they feed us oppression Put our morals to the test Police sworn to protect But who do they serve? The tyrants in suits Now that's the curve People didn't sign up For this hellish game Beating down their brothers It's all so insane So stand up in Canberra Hold your ground The time is now, don't back down We're breaking the silence Raising our voice This system's broken It's time to make a choice [Bridge] When the badges lose their way They gotta know You can't keep the peace While you enforce the low We need a revolution Can't stay in the dark Bring the fire back to life Ignite the spark The numbers dropping But the spirit remains People coming back To break these chains Fly the ensign Let the colors soar This land ain't yours Remember the core When we stand united They'll tremble in fear Time to take back what's ours Make it crystal clear So stand up in Canberra Hold your ground The time is now Don't back down We're breaking the silence Raising our voice This system's broken It's time to make a choice It's a call to the people Let the truth unfold Canberra, we're coming back Strong and bold No longer slaves To their oppressive game We will rise together Let them remember our name
