Gagged, Bound, Shelved, and Forgotten Lyrics

Denied, a whisper, a voice to try
to fill the chanbers destroyed by lies
Feels we're faking our power is draining
Out of our hands
Don't
Don't let them take our nation
Let
Don't let them take our nation
Them
Don't let them take our nation
Take
our nation, leaving us drifting through falsehood
Redemption is gone
They tell us that we're fine
That we choose our rights
Our choice to fight
What fucking lies They slay our minds
This is for penance
This end for silence
Blunt force reminds us
We all are taking the fall
And if they think they've won
They better think...
They fucking better think twice
We've degredated to violence
WE OWN
More than you'll ever know
WE OWN
The streets and your fucking home
US NOT THEM
I've tired, waiting for help
For an answer for some savior...
They have no hope left to sell
Don't let them take out nation
Today
lets rise to reach
for that tomorrow that lives inside you and me
I would die fighting for that day
I would die for our day

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Awesome, first comment \m/ >.< \m/

I think this song is about how the government, or any other source of power, eg. parents, school, work, etc. tells us we have rights, but in reality, they are the ones that are controlling us, and that we should fight for freedom from those powers, to get the rights we truly deserve
