[Intro]
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight!

[Verse 1]
Nothing suffocates you more than
The passing of everyday human events
Isolation is the oxygen mask you make
Your children breathe in to survive

[Chorus]
But I'm not a slave
To a god that doesn't exist (Fight! Fight!)
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit (Fight! Fight!)

[Verse 2]
You'll never grow up to be a big rock star
Celebrated victim of your fame
They'll just cut our wrists like cheap coupons
And say that death was on sale, today

[Chorus]
And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So, when we are bad
We'll scar your minds

But I'm not a slave
To a god that doesn't exist (Fight! Fight!)
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit (Fight! Fight!)

[Bridge]
The death of one is a tragedy (We'll scar your minds)
The death of one is a tragedy (We'll scar your minds)
The death of one is a tragedy (We'll scar your minds)
But the death of millions is just a statistic

[Refrain]
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

[Chorus]
But I'm not a slave
To a god that doesn't exist (Fight! Fight!)
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit (Fight! Fight!)

But I'm not a slave
To a god that doesn't exist (Fight! Fight!)
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit (Fight! Fight!)

[Outro]
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! (But I'm not a slave)
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! (But I'm not a slave)
God doesn't exist, god doesn't exist
God doesn't exist, god doesn't exist

Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner who is better known under his stage name of Marilyn Manson is a musician, painter, actor, multimedia artist, and former music journalist. His stage name is a combination of the names of two American icons, actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder conspiracy convict Charles Manson.

I picked that (Marilyn Manson) as the fakest stage name of all to say that this is what show business is, fake. Marilyn Monroe wasn’t even her real name, Charles Manson isn’t his real name, and now, I’m taking that to be my real name. But what’s real? You can’t find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best. As long as you know everything’s a lie, you can’t hurt yourself.

—Marylin Manson
