Lyrics Pendulum - Jeremiah Walter

When the progress made becomes too much for some
Then the pendulum comes swinging back again
Knocking back the rights we've gained
With focused hate below the guide of faith
Turning back to good old days that never were

A pendulum
Turned wrecking ball
See the freedom fall

There are children born and left to starve or die
In a hail of bullets from a gun with rights
That woman doesn't have
'Cuz they were grabbed by thieves in robes of black
Put in power by an angry mob of whites

A pendulum
Turned wrecking ball
See the freedom fall

What they're breaking next, they've not been shy to say
You're a target if you're brown or black or gay
So they seek hegemony
Through bigotry and bold misogyny
If they're given full control they won't let go

Of the pendulum
Turned wrecking ball
See the freedom fall
