I Am a Rifle! Lyrics

I am a rifle!

Built like a dream out of the past.
Crushing generations with a foggy mass
of seething anger and unhealed wounds.
I can"t make this right but don"t be confused.
I am a rifle. I am this blockade.
I"m banners and violence and car-bombs and riots.
I am a rifle. I am this blockade.
I am the fire of a thousand murdered sons.

Don"t look to me to give the future back.
Don"t look to me to rework the past.
I"m only here to bring things to a head.
You can cover your ears, it doesn"t change who I am.
I am a rifle. I am this blockade.
I"m banners and violence and car-bombs and riots.
I am a rifle. I am this blockade.
I am the fire of a thousand murdered sons.

I haunt the Chilcotin.
I stalk Palestine.
I fueled Rwanda"s worst.
I held Lasagna"s hand.
I"m one hundred shades of hunger.
I am a rifle. I am this blockade.
I am the fire of a thousand murdered sons.
I am resistance. I am your problem.
I'm not leaving and I am your fault.
