[Verse 1]
Clock in, breathe deep, swallow what they sold ya
Safety sheet's a lie, nobody ever told ya
Poison in the air, but the line keeps movin'
Bosses in the office, deny what they're doin'
Numbers on a spreadsheet, that's all that we are
Cut the corners deep, count the dividends far
You knew, you knew, you watched us go gray
Now I'm screamin' out loud what you tried to erase
[Pre-Chorus]
And I won't, no I won't back down
Pull the curtain, drag it out into the light now
[Chorus]
J and J thought they got away
Lettin' workers choke on mercury
But the truth, the truth we're gonna say
Bring down the criminal conspiracy
Bring it down, bring it down
We won't choke on mercury
Bring it down, bring it down
Bring down the criminal conspiracy
[Verse 2]
Memo after memo, you knew the whole time
Buried in a drawer, made silence a crime
Lungs full of metal while you toasted the gain
We're the ghosts in the warehouse, screamin' your name
You bet we'd disappear, just fade with the dust
But the fire's in the witness, and the witness won't bust
Every name, every shift, every breath that you stole
Comin' back for the reckoning, body and soul
[Pre-Chorus]
And I won't, no I won't back down
Pull the curtain, drag it out into the light now
[Chorus]
J and J thought they got away
Lettin' workers choke on mercury
But the truth, the truth we're gonna say
Bring down the criminal conspiracy
Bring it down, bring it down
We won't choke on mercury
Bring it down, bring it down
Bring down the criminal conspiracy
[Bridge]
You signed it, you hid it, you knew
We bled it, we lived it, it's true
And every voice you tried to bury underground
Is standin' here right now, and we're loud
[Final Chorus]
J and J thought they got away
Not today, not on mercury
Truth is out, there's nothin' left to say
Bring down the criminal conspiracy
