Welcome to the first degree as I declare and I decree We live in a land where speech is free but no-one's voice is heard I don't ever wanna be part of the silent majority Let's move to a state of emergency and start a red alert Practice what you preach Learn from what you teach Get up on your feet Time to change the tune Practice what you preach Stand for your beliefs Get up from your seat and turn up the volume I've got something to say but you can't hear me 'cause nobody listens to this frequency You can scream if you want, but it'll never be heard You can shout it aloud, but we live in a world where explosions speak much louder than words Strike a match and light the fuse Burn away the blindness deafening you Fuel the fire and watch it grow Fan the flames until they're out of control Signals smoke, releasing fumes The transmission of silence won't resume Drop your bombs and watch them blow Repeat until, until everything explodes Everything explodes Practice what you preach Learn from what you teach Get up on your feet Time to change the tune Practice what you preach Stand for your beliefs Get up from your seat and turn up the volume Make this box boom I've got something to say but you can't hear me 'cause nobody listens to this frequency You can scream if you want, but it'll never be heard You can shout it aloud, but we live in a world where explosions speak much louder than words Explosions speak louder than you and me Explosions speak louder than we could ever be Explosions speak louder than me and you Explosions speak louder than we could ever do Than we could ever do Practice what you preach Learn from what you teach Get up on your feet Time to change the tune Practice what you preach Stand for your beliefs Get up from your seat and turn up the volume Jam the signal flow Blast in stereo 'til all systems blow I've got something to say but you cant hear me 'cause nobody listens to this frequency You can scream if you want, but it'll never be heard You can shout it aloud, but we live in a world where explosions speak much louder than words
