A Display of Force by Flexing Lyrics

They wear us down until the blood starts flowing
Instituting a campaign of fear
Try to break us but the anger’s growing
Pushing back against the crush it’s clear that

They’re getting ruthless now
Make no excuses
We will be ruthless now
Give back the bruises

They wear us down until the blood starts flowing
Instituting a campaign of fear
Try to break us but the anger’s growing
Pushing back against the crush it’s clear there’s

No peace, no love, no compromise
No peace, no love, no compromise

Relеntlessly we’re swimming through thе flood
Holding fast against each new attack
Never resting, always thinking
“Who will save us when the water turns black?”
Who will save us when the water’s black?
Who will save us when the water’s black?
Who will save us when the water’s black?
No peace, no love, no compromise
No peace, no love, no compromise

They’re getting ruthless now
Make no excuses
We will be ruthless now
Give back the bruises

The power of our resistance lies in our resilience and compassion
But compassion doesn’t equal submission and we will not back down
And we will not accept the normalization of brutality

They wear us down until the blood starts
They wear us down, they wear us down
They wear us down until the blood starts
They wear us down, they wear us down

Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
I know you’re tired
Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
Try not to sink
Try not to sink, I know you’re tired
‘Cause I am tired
