Played the same game since the dawn of time
Scapegoat and divide like pawns in line
Punch up!
Pit tribe against tribe, red against blue
Just a bribe to get me against you
Punch up!
Don't punch sideways, don't punch down
Don't let 'em play you like a clown
Punch up!
Gather up allies, link up
Eyes on the prize, now wind up
Punch up! Punch up! Punch up!
They don't care 'bout cultural martyr
Just a poor excuse to divide and conquer
Punch up!
Republican, Democrat, mainstream media
Abortion, trans, deep state hysteria
Punch up!
Don't punch sideways, don't punch down
Don't let 'em play you like a clown
Punch up!
Gather up allies, link up
Eyes on the prize, now wind up
Punch up! Punch up! Punch up!
Infiltrate minds with rumors and mistrust
Replace connection with hate and disgust
Punch up!
Got us clawing at each other's throat
Solidarity is the antidote
Punch up!
Don't punch sideways, don't punch down
Don't let 'em play you like a clown
Punch up!
Gather up allies, link up
Eyes on the prize, now wind up
Punch up! Punch up! Punch up!
What they fear most is solidarity
So they invent enemies, sell us misery
Punch up!
The reason your life's so hard ain't fate
Privatized, corporate police-state
Punch up!
Don't punch sideways, don't punch down
Don't let 'em play you like a clown
Punch up!
Gather up allies, link up
Eyes on the prize, now wind up
Punch up! Punch up! Punch up!
Their favorite pawns are those who do their bidding
The type of traitor who sells their soul unwitting
Punch up!
They feed the hate, divide the streets
When weak punch weak, it protects the elite
Punch up!
Don't punch sideways, don't punch down
Don't let 'em play you like a clown
Punch up!
Gather up allies, link up
Eyes on the prize, now wind up
Punch up! Punch up! Punch up!
