And if revolution isn’t what’s in store How can you care anymore? [Chorus] It’s a dangerous slip a conscientious shift In the spirit of resistance you gotta hold your grip Lest the state of your resolve makes you quickly devolve to a fundamentalist [Verse] You’re an archetype that they can pin to the wall As you cling to all convictions like a farm animal in its stall Never thinking of the bigger world outside As they take you for a ride [Chorus] It’s a dangerous slip a conscientious shift In the spirit of resistance you gotta hold your grip Because passion unabated will be readily conflated with belligerence [Solo] (Over verse chords) [Chorus] It’s a dangerous slip a conscientious shift The spirit of resistance you gotta hold your grip And the verdict won’t be kind ’cuz they’re desperate for a viable alternative [Instrumental] x4 Take a stance. The resist stance. (x4)
