Cover art for A Fistful Of Revolution lyrics by Whatever It Takes

fist = international sign of demanding a liberation socially, politcally, economically, etc.

"I've seen a rising statue Next to a crumbling building And a city scapes call to arms. "

rising statues are when notable political figures have their stautes made and raised. the statue next to a crumbling building means the crumbling building symbolizes the crumbling state of a nation's well-being and wellfare. that the nation is in shambles and the stature (the leader) may be the cause. A city scape calls to arms, means that the people are not happy with the status quo and that a revolution to overtake an incompetant or unjust leader is neccessary.

showing our numbers = protest rally!!!!!!

a fistful of revolution= a brick! they're going to smash the state!

pretty simple song. the meaning is generic, but it expresses a strong feeling with such few words. if you want to hear more political and verbal lyrics, check out anti-flag, chris barker (vocals of whatever it takes) is also the bassist for anti-flag. rock on!
