[Intro – Growled/Spoken with banjo loop & swamp bass beat]
Welcome to the Everglades…
Where freedom’s fried and gators guard the gates.
Y’all ready to riot?
Let’s go.
⸻
[Verse 1 – Rap cadence over dirty distorted banjo riff]
They locked us in with snakes and shame
Built a wall of mud and gave it a name
“Alcatraz South” — but it ain’t no joke
You run too fast, them gators gon’ choke
The warden’s drunk off swamp-fed power
Got drones, dogs, and a watchtower
But Pete got shine in a gas can jug
Lit it with a Marlboro and gave ’em a shrug
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Chant/Scream]
We ain’t your slaves
We ain’t your stats
We’re moonshine-fueled
And swingin’ bats
⸻
[Chorus – Full chant with distorted guitar and bass drop]
MOONSHINE RIOT — boots in the fire
Smoke in our lungs and barbed-wire tires
We burn the fence, we torch the lies
This backwoods army’s gonna rise
You can’t cage thunder, can’t drown pain
We pour our truth in jars of flame
MOONSHINE RIOT — shout the creed
Freedom’s brewed in the swamps we bleed
⸻
[Verse 2 – Faster flow, more chaotic beat]
Cheep Cheep’s squawkin’ on the prison roof
Said “Y’all better run — I got the proof”
Lois got the codes from the fan boat crew
And Steve just hijacked the Warden’s brew
Mike’s got the pythons, Peter’s in camo
Angie’s got a rocket hidden in the ammo
And me? I’m drivin’ that Uber van
Straight through the gates — with a flip-off hand
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Chant/Scream]
This ain’t no joke
This ain’t no act
We’re takin’ back
Our lives — in fact…
⸻
[Chorus – Louder, more layered]
MOONSHINE RIOT — rage in a flask
Gators be runnin’, can’t handle the task
We tore the tower, flipped the script
Took the flag and let it rip
They made a cage, we made a flame
Set the system on fire with a rebel name
MOONSHINE RIOT — stomp the beat
From bayou boots to freedom’s street
⸻
[Bridge – Slow breakdown, eerie echo vocals]
One shot for the ones who died
Two for the truth they tried to hide
Three for the blood in Dixie clay
Four for the dream we burn today
⸻
[Final Chorus – All-out riot vocals with rap overlay]
MOONSHINE RIOT — light it up
Gas in the bottle, middle finger up
We ain’t the weak, we ain’t the tame
We’re Dead Love Drive — and we play no games
Rage in the rhythm, fire in the soul
Crack that shine, and lose control
MOONSHINE RIOT — it’s goin’ down
Gator guards and a rebel crown
⸻
[Outro – Cheep Cheep cluckin’ with bass fadeout]
Bok bok…
“Y’all messed with the wrong damn chicken.”
