lyrics

I wonder if it could be me, will I keep my dignity, yet another brother has fallen from grace. It hits you when you least expect, stick a knife into my back and test my faith in my fellow man. Is this the price I must pay for my naivety of the snakes living in our midst. Treachery is rife these days, should I change my charity, to a heart of stone and callousness. Another brother has fallen from grace, and once again they spit in my face. There's a new generation that knows no shame, but we've done no wrong and we will not change, no we will not change. Earn your stripes and stand in line, respect is earned when you're on the front line, for all our martyrs who stood before. Who paved the way for the blood and soil who paved the way for the blood and soil, now earn your stripes and stand in line. For all our martyrs who stood before, who paved the way for the blood and soil, respect is earned when you're on the front line. Now earn your stripes and stand in line, earn your stripes and stand in line, respect is earned when you're on the front line.
