Anti-Flag - Rank-N-File Lyrics






I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
Our black hearts worn on our sleeves!

Let my imagination go and drop me where I feel most scared.
Snap back already giving thanks,
I'm not trapped working in a sweatshop somewhere.
This songs for those less fortunate,
locked in a world where both ends aren't meant to meet.

I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.
I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves!

Let my imagination go and drop me where I feel most scared.
Synaptic flashes in my head then total thanks again,
I'm not soldiering somewhere.
This songs for the countless souls,
who died in vain for someone else's gain.

I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.
I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.

Left my birthplace for foreign streets to strange places, new faces I flew.
Shoeless kids stood on the corner,
their eyes they were transfixed on you.

So I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
ohhh my black heart worn on my sleeve.
I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
with our black hearts worn on our sleeves, ALRIGHT!

I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.
I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.

I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.
I'm standing with the rank-n-file,
I'm marching with the underground,
our black hearts worn on our sleeves.

    man, all my old ideas just died from my heart. and i'm clinging desperately to feel that the change in times hasn't destroyed my old ways and ideals, but i don't think the times are the same at all as back in the college career choice Bush protest punk rock memories...

  17. K.... H....

    Not only in the US but everywhere in the world the Government plays with the people. FUCK THE GOVERNMENT! The Underground lives! We won't stop to fight!

    K.... H....

    what are you on about?

    K.... H....

    The governments see the people as figures in some kind of game. They try to lead you into the direction they want you to go. Away from the truth about their doings. If you don't do so, you are classified as dangerous. NSA is just one example. BND as well.

    K.... H....

    The world is a fucked place No more Government No more Gas No more Money That shit is Trash everyone needs to get along there is to much hate and greed and killing, veterans that fight for our country and realize that what the fuck are they even fighting for and come home and are now homeless all because our government portrays that fight for our freedom when really we should be fighting ourselves than because America is not a free country we are free slaves we are slaves to the government's system we are fucking puppets tied to strings we are not free we are free slaves fuck the government corruption All We Need Is Love

    K.... H....

    yes and then they wonder why there was such a huge crisis in argentina in 2001 when the pension system there collapsed argentines grew up with the belief that the government will protect them just wait till trump cuts social security medicare then there will be a huge army on the national mall

  18. O.... g....

    @booboobitxch666 So fucking true.

  29. J.... F....

    2:41 breaks my heart it's so damn moving I can't explain Fuck the Government and Fuck War

  30. m.... l....

    This was the first Anti-Flag song I had ever heard. I was flipping through a Warped Tour Compilation, jumping from shit song to shit song when this one came on and hit me like a ton of bricks.

    m.... l....

    m lamb Same!

  31. D.... A....

    @Laidleypunk12 I don't really read too much into their extremist political messages. Like when I'm listening to Die For The Government or the Press Corpse, for example its more just about the music for me. I like socialism but capitalism is pretty great when it actually works.

  32. D.... A....

    @Laidleypunk12 Not to mention "religion is the opiate" at the end of SGWDC. They're definitely commies.

  33. Z.... ....

    @MrUsedBooks yup. i got nostalgic as fuck when i heard an Anti-Flag song the other day. now i'm just tihnking back allll those years and listening to old songs.

  34. R.... ....

    @Woonymiler No, they're not.

  35. M.... ....

    @wtfisthatsmell Are you serious? They are extremely left wing. Here is a quote directly from their website "The members of Anti-Flag tend to prescribe to progressive, far left leaning political ideology. Anti-Flag have backed a number of political candidates in the past but overall tend not to back specific candidates." Besides they are also anti-capitalism and anti-war both of which are left wing ideologies. You have to be a complete idiot to not think they are left wing.

  36. M.... ....

    @wtfisthatsmell Well I more realized that the left wing is just as bad as the right wing. It takes some people longer than others to realize that punk sucks. I also came to the conclusion Anti-Flag are hypocrites.

  37. M.... ....

    This was my song when I was like 12 going through my fuck the government and authority phase.

    M.... ....

    Im a metal rock fan and punk rock fan.and i hate that nothing lost.im working for money and not for the state in there i live.i say it 2003 and yes today i was older and had family but i play also this songs louder than hell and says today also Fuck Authority and fuck the US Government!!!!!

    M.... ....

    Such a weak song to be your "fuck the system" song 🤷‍♂️

  38. r.... ....

    Kids are naive but don't make wars

  39. k.... ....

    @youddothesame87 NICE SCREEN NAME. ;) I agree though, they've gotten really fucking lame as the years have passed. I've been a fan for 10 years of so, I accidentally bought Underground Network when I was like 11. Hooked ever since, but only up until that point.. All the albums post-UN suck. Hard.

    k.... ....

    katelovesyou666 mobilize was all right

  40. F.... E....

    @youddothesame87 you probably just cant relate because you no longer get that chill on the back of your neck when you listen

  41. L.... F....

    this band is so lame. i cant believe i liked them when i was 16.

    L.... F....

    Wow you're so edgy

  42. f.... ....

    @zorlac86 synaptic

  43. f.... ....

    @F1ghTh3pow3R someone else's gain. not game

  44. f.... ....

    @F1ghTh3pow3R it's gain, not game

  45. d.... ....

    @ajdicks But then Green Day needed to collect MAD GRAMMYZ SON. So after realizing they were really really boring (lolminority), they re-ripped off the genre. I'm not saying it's such an amazing groundbreaking genre to begin with. But they definitely had to go back and rip off the contemporary version of it in order to write American Idiot.

  46. s.... ....

    This album isn't bad- Rank-n-file in particular could have been on A New Kind Of Army and noone would notice

  47. s.... ....

    The poor. Rank and file is a military term for the foot soldiers- cannon fodder.

  48. y.... e....

    capitalism

  49. J.... B....

    love this song hahahahahahahaha

  50. s.... ....
