"WHO ARE THE REBELS"

Verse 1
Well, you say the kids are rebels,
Running wild without a cause,
Defiant and law-breaking,
Only seeking to destroy!
But who are the rebels? Is it them or is it you?
How can the kids be rebels
When they've never heard the Truth?

Chorus 1
Now, who are the rebels [are the rebels]?
Who's on the wrong side?
Now tell me, who are the rebels?
Who's on the wrong side?

Verse 2
You gave them a society that is anti-God,
A cruel and filthy System built on dog-eat-dog.
How many ever gave them love and truth,
To keep from turning into savage,
Cold and heartless youth?

[Repeat Chorus 1]

Chorus 2
Who are the rebels? Who's on the wrong side?
Who are the rebels? [Who are the rebels?]
Who's on the wrong side?

That's rhythm!

Rap
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
And David killed Goliath with a little pebble.
The System's like it was a long time ago,
And I'm askin' you now,
To tell me who's the rebel?!

It's known you've sown the wind yesterday.
Now your kids are grown,
You've got Hell to pay, [Hell to pay!]
'Cause you're reapin' the whirlwind.
In God's sight, two wrongs don't ever, ever make a right!
May He never let you reach your Godless goals,
And have mercy on your rebellious souls!!
[There's something to chew on!]

Chorus 4
Who are the rebels [are the rebels]?
Who's on the wrong side?
Who are the rebels [are the rebels]?

Chorus 5
Who, who are the rebels?
Who's on the wrong side?
Who are the rebels?
Who's on the wrong side?

Guitar break
-[Who are the rebels?] -
[I'm asking ya!]

Verse 3
Well, it's you who have defied Him
And taught them to do it, too!
You break the laws of God, and now they're
Turning back on you!
So to Hell with your System!
May God damn your unbelief!
You'd better change your selfish ways that
Bring on all this grief!

Chorus 6
Now, who are the rebels [who are the rebels]?
Who's on the wrong side?
Who are the rebels? Who's on the wrong side?
Who are the rebels? Who are the rebels?

Who are the rebels? [Who are the rebels?]
Who are the rebels? Who's on the wrong side?

Who's on the wrong side?
[Whose side are you on?]
