War -- Is This What You Want? --- Original Song

Original Song ---Rock Anti-war message

[Pre-Verse - Shouted]
HEY!
You light the match, then walk away —
Is this the price that we must pay?

[Verse 1]
(Em) Smoke in the sky, (C) children cry,
(G) Flags wave high — but (D) who’s asking why?
(Em) Power games, (C) blood in your name,
(G) It’s not a fight — (D) it’s a goddamn shame!

[Chorus]
(Em) Is this what you (G) want?!
(D) Screams in the (A) dirt?!
(Em) Glory soaked in (G) blood —
(D) how much is it (A) worth?!
(Em) You sell us your (G) fear,
(D) dress it up as (A) pride —
(Em) Is this what you (G) want?!
(D) Is this what you (A) hide?!

[Verse 2]
(Em) Steel in the streets, (C) lies on repeat,
(G) “Justified” — (D) while we bleed.
(Em) Heroes fall (C) nameless and small,
(G) You count the cost — (D) behind your walls.

[Chorus]
(Em) Is this what you (G) want?!
(D) Ashes and (A) chains?!
(Em) Freedom’s just a (G) word —
(D) you twist in our (A) brains.
(Em) You talk like a (G) king,
(D) but rule like a (A) thief —
(Em) Is this what you (G) want?!
(D) Just silence and (A) grief?

[Bridge – breakdown style]
(C) No more graves — (D) no more lies
(Em) We see through your (B) thin disguise

(C) The youth will rise — (D) the fire burns
(Em) This is the day — (B) the tide turns

[Final Chorus – double time]
(Em) Is this what you (G) want?!
(D) The deafening (A) roar?!
(Em) We’re kicking down (G) gates,
(D) we won’t take it no (A) more!
(Em) The people won’t (G) kneel,
(D) the silence is (A) gone —
(Em) You built this damn (G) war —
(D) Now choke on your (A) throne!

[Outro]
(Aggressive instrumental breakdown in Em)
(Chanting repeated)
This is not what we want — this is what you made.
This is not what we want — this is what you crave.
