No more rebellion Lyrics

In times such as these I expected to see

Some backbone but I'm not impressed

Our icons of life and heroes have died

They cower in fear like the rest

Where are the bold men and heroes of old

With the courage to stand and defy

There is no more rebellion in rock 'n roll

There is no one who wants to be free

You go out of your way to bow down and obey

Like cattle and sheep play the role

There is no fire left in rock 'n roll

Duped and betrayed by the gods of this age

You hurt yourself by broken reeds

Will you break from the fold

Or do what you're told

Yeah, who now is weak and naive

If you're live and awake

With a half-working brain

Maybe use it and quit being a slave

There is no more rebellion in rock 'n roll

There is no one who wants to be free

You go out of your way to bow down and obey

Like cattle and sheep play the role

There is no more rebellion in rock 'n roll

There is no one who wants to believe

But the faithful remain

We will not fade away

From the ashes will rise a new day

Will you answer the call to fight and pray

Is there no one who wants to be free

Is there no one who wants to believe

Standing firm on the rock and foundation of faith

We will not be alarmed or dismayed

There is no more rebellion in rock 'n roll

There is no one who wants to believe

You go out of your way to bow down and obey

Like cattle and sheep play the role

There is no more rebellion in rock 'n roll

Is there no one who wants to believe

But the righteous remain

We will not fade away

True rebels will always prevail

True rebels are people of the faith

People of the faith will always prevail
