Spit or Swallow Lyrics

What's so hard to understand?
Which part did you not get?
What exactly floats your boat?
Who do you abet?
Clinging to the status quo
Dispute state of affairs
Instead of ringing in the change
Content with splitting hairs
Better die on your feet
Than live on your knees
In the absence of justice
There will be no peace
Spit or swallow
Pretend or commit
Lead or follow
Ideal or unfit
Spit or swallow
Palace or pit

Legionnaire
Or hypocrite
Hide behind your pious words
Lament your desperate state
Do you believe in action
Or play victim to your fate?
Better die on your feet
Than live on your knees
In the absence of justice
There will be no peace
Spit or swallow
Deny or admit
Lead or follow
Arise or quit
Spit or swallow
Rebel or submit
Try or die trying
Swallow or spit
War is the rich man's terrorism
Terrorism is the poor man's war
War is the rich man's terrorism
Terrorism is the poor man's war
What am I supposed to make
Of people like you?
What you say is not enough
It's what you do
Cowardly bewailing
Too frightened to stand tall
Play the hand you have been dealt
You've got no balls at all
Better die on your feet
Than live on your knees
In the absence of justice
There will be no peace
Spit or swallow
(Spit or swallow)
Pretend or commit
(Pretend or commit)
Lead or follow
(Lead or follow)
Swallow or spit
(Swallow or spit)
Spit or swallow
Drown in your blood
(Drown in your blood)
Or live in your shit
(Live in your shit)
