A cold wind is coming
Going to plaster you against the wall
Slap your face with indignation
Blowing through your bones and flesh

Tough times will try to keep you down
As you bury your face from the icy blast
Squeeze the Jesus from your pores
Freeze your feet and frost your ass

The beatings will continue until moral improves
Justice alone will not serve you
You have to insulate rough, raw skin
And protect the vibrancy deep within

When you’re imprisoned by the bars
And linked to the cell with rusty iron
You retain the power of resistance
Act alone without assistance

Rattle your chains
Make them squeak and groan
Feel the heat of insurrection
Call attention in your direction

Rattle the chains
Shatter the silence
Tell the world you’re going to fight
And not go quietly into the night.

The darkest of days are sure to pass
Tunnel your way towards the light
You have the power deep in your soul
To keep your strength when cold winds blow.
