Raised Fist - Sound Of The Republic Lyrics






Bringing to light what the media will not
The business fucked up and you suddenly forgot
Always in the background sketching out the plot
You are devoted to destroy more often than not
Bringing all your friends in just to make a mess
Moving all your pawns in like a game of chess
You're holding your breath and let me guess
This is where you want me to get real stressed

Everyday you sit there with your friends at the cafe
Talking shit about me, and all the people on the street
That doesn't really agree,
And I find it hard to cope with this insanity and jealousy
That comes from people with a guarantee to
Fail, still blaming it on me

This is the sound that will make you go sick
Building it up with brick after brick after brick
We don't care about how you keep on dissin' it
(This is the sound of the Raised Fist Republic)
This is the sound of the Raised Fist Republic

Whispering about this and that I don't know what
Want me to remember, already forgot
Want to have a leading role, take your best shot
Want to have what I got, you want a lot

Screaming about this and that I don't know what
Want me to remember, already forgot
Want to have a leading role, take your best shot
Want to have what we got, you want a lot

Everyday you sit there with your friends at the cafe
Talking shit about me, and all the people on the street
That doesn't really agree,
And I find it hard to cope with this insanity and jealousy
That comes from people with a guarantee to
Fail, still blaming it on me

This is the sound that will make you go sick
Building it up with brick after brick after brick
We don't care about how you keep on dissin' it
This is the sound of the Raised Fist Republic

This is the sound that will make you go sick
Building it up with brick after brick after brick
We don't care about how you keep on dissin' it
(This is the sound of the Raised Fist Republic)
This is the sound of the Raised Fist Republic

  7. D.... B....

    I think the music is ok They have a rather fanatic image (like
    activists) and they are boring at the same time. The real downside on RF
    is the choking vocals. dont you guys hear that? The song brick after
    brick is the only one that suits the vocals and therefore the only RF
    song i can relax too and enjoy.

    ow i see brick after brick is called " sound of the republic". It's a
    song that marches by like an entire peleton of soldiers...impressive
    rythmn, 100% perfectly executed. Respect for making this unique piece of art!

  8. W.... ....

    Their beats are always really sick, but the vocals just instantly turn me off from it, too bad.

    D.... ....

    ..but the vocalist is a Serb :D

    D.... ....

    And the guitarist has deep finnish origins.

  23. h.... ....

    You're right, their lyrics make them more than music

  24. m.... ....

    Raised fist is not music. Nü-metal is poo.

  25. c.... ....

    It's a shame that MTV does not play music anymore.

  26. b.... h....

    this is the sound that makes me go sick...

  27. C.... S....

    This song is perfect

  28. P.... ....

    Damn..he's really fit and hot as hell!

  29. V.... B....

    There are more metal-heads than they think.

  30. p.... ....

    It's a shame MTV doesn't play music anymore.

  31. M.... ....

    Should?! Hmmm actually I do each summer ;)

  32. 3.... ....

    They barely play any music at all these days... =/

  33. N.... L....

    Bear grylls, high as fuck, singing in a hardcorepunk band and stuff.

    N.... L....

    Nick Lengacher hahaha

  34. s.... ....

  35. F.... ....

    more like all music left MTV

  36. I.... w....

    lol, I think all the good music left MTV

  37. T.... ....

    They even grabbed a BM drummer. \ m /

  38. K.... M....

    its a shame that someones generation decided to download music from internet, now mtv has no point to show music videos anymore. and hey, you watch it here, why do you have to have one more screen in your house to show music videos, its all here???

  39. A.... K....

    I remember traveling through Denmark and searching for something to eat in a dumpster behind a restaurant and hearing this song. I looked in the window and saw this video and nearly shat myself. No music video channel here would play anything like it ever.

  40. r.... ....

    They belong to the Swedish label Burning Heart Records, such as Millencolin, etc. Burning Heart owned by Epitaph Rec these days.

  41. R.... ....

    f**k MTV, i want my NYHC back! (C) subzero 1995

  42. R.... ....

    they appear on which label?

  43. S.... E....

    MTV used to play music? o.O

  44. s.... ....

    2:30 is the sound of your ass being flattened by a monstrous riff.

  45. D.... I....

    Do you mean?
    1.highly objectionable or offensive; odious: obnoxious behavior.
    or
    2. annoying or objectionable due to being a showoff or attracting undue attention to oneself: an obnoxious little brat.
    or
    3. Archaic. exposed or liable to harm, evil, or anything objectionable.
    or
    4. Obsolete. liable to punishment or censure; reprehensible. ??

  46. D.... I....

    Yes badass energikick from 0:01 to 2:48!

  47. B.... ....

    It's pretty basic really, god doesn't create people, and noone created god, therefore: god doesn't exist. Grasp it in your head already and stop finding excuses for every single thing in life. Life is how you want and make it to be, not how some made up image influences cultures into thinking different shit.

    P.S. Raised fist is fucking awesome.

  48. L.... ....

    I think that if there was a God, he wouldn't have made ignorant stupid ppl like yourself.
    or is your God a fucking failure?

    seek some fuckin help dumbass

  49. T.... ....

    1:35 -> 1:54 epic, simply epic

  50. t.... ....

    Yeah, that's what you think. Learn to use "I think" in the beginning of you're sentences ffs.

  51. C.... ....

    His voice is the best thing about this band! Same with Bring me the Horizon for me, it's something new

  52. B.... W....

    Here's the thing: I do NOT believe in "God" or anything supernatural. I do not follow what ever a dusty old book tells me, I can think for myself, thanks.
    Besides, if God created everything, he also created homo sexuals. Woop-de-doo.

  53. J.... H....

    Its fucked that mtv dont play stuff like this anymore. Its all eminem and other shit now

  54. m.... l....

    fuk yeah! stumbled on these guys just now.. i loved these years ago.. epic song

  55. T.... E....

    Detta väcker minnen.

  57. N.... ....

  64. P.... B....

    @DaGagamel ehm, MTV stoped playing good music before 2006 bro

  65. D.... ....

    that was the time when mtv played good music..

  66. T.... ....

    Alexander Hagemann. Catchy and lethal. I think you'd need a case of Natty in you to fuck with him. And why would you bother? His band is great, not at all like the American fuckwits like "Bullet for my Valentine" or the crap A7X (M Shadows lost it with his vocals) KXE is decent, but not good. Take a lesson from these bastards unless you feel OK shopping at Hot Topic.

  67. D.... ....

    @boomroasted1012 indeed, he is a really good kickboxer/mma trainer :D

  68. P.... ....

    @BodyBuildRulz Yup alot of people from this band used steroids but I honestly like some of their songs. Especially their old songs are heavy as hell.

  69. U.... ....

    O_O what a shit song.
    what happened with the old raised fist? omg.

  70. 3.... ....

    Alle? GAY>????? lmao I think that Cajsa Sundström would have something to say about that ahahahaha

  71. 2.... ....

    @nomerayes89 His voice make you poo so shut up ralph..

  72. B.... ....

    @GeorgeZupster You sir, are an idiot.

  73. c.... ....

  81. M.... A....

    @aikarN1234 another country with free health care is italy...

  82. T.... Z....

  83. R.... ....

  84. T.... ....

    i wont say that the singer sucks....but i really dont like his vocals O.o to me they sound like shit. but the whole music ROCKS!!

  85. K.... ....

    this song gets badass at 0:01

  86. 5.... c....

    @icicicles he has one of the most pissed off voices i've heard, and his lyrics are amazing. he has alot of great things to say about politics and philosophy. i'm glad he opened his mouth to voice his opinions.

  87. c.... ....

    Good Music!

  88. s.... ....

    hes got the fucking voice of an angel. great talent.

  89. M.... S....

    @snedvridet mike patton is bisexual.

  90. S.... ....

    @ gorefinder : totally agree with you... gay or not, what difference does it make?
    @ shadolin765a : oh fuck... I feel bad when i hear bullshits like that...

    But i just find the singer show off too much.. sincerely... otherwise the music is really good :)

  91. L.... ....

    @tontcho WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

  92. r.... ....

    @shadolink765a1 You dont know shit son.

  93. g.... ....

    I dont know whats the problem with the singer being gay...i bet he would kick the shit out of anyone that would say that to his face, his choice i dont fucking care about does he love pussy or cock...if he can write lyrics like that thats the only thing i care of :D and the music ofc :D

  94. Z.... F....

    Freddy mercury was gay...BUT a great singer (And if you dont know who he is, dont even reply to this)

    This band rocks!
    I don't care if he the singer likes to suck, that's his business
    but his voice sucks - too squeaky of a voice.
    Just sayin!
    I could have really dug this group if that singer hadn't opened his mouth.

  98. N.... ....

    @bambiny1 Unfortunatley some religious extremists do care. Fuck em.

  99. R.... J....

    these guys are from the 90s and still got it.

  100. M.... S....

    @byf1864 Did I miss something here? I just asked if the singer was gay cos my friend told me he was, I don't really care if he is as I love judas preist and mike pattons stuff.
