lyrics

It all started out in 1997,
My best friend was ten and i was eleven,
a beat up old drum kit and my fathers guitar,
we would never break up no we would go far

nowhere to run and nowhere to go,
a bombshelter under our school became our second home.
Do what we want in the absence of laws,
forget about our problems and never walk alone

Friday night and we were ready for our first show
They turned off the music in the middle of the disco
Three scared kids with spikes studs and mohawks
No one had a clue what the fuck was going on.

We played all our four songs twice in a row.
Fuck this disco, have you never seen a punk show?
couldn´t care less about the idiots that laughed
we created something on our own that they would never have.

its not a trend, its not a fashion
its my love my life my passion
its a way of life and i never give in
we take care of one another
in this never ending struggle
its a state of mind and my identity

Always was is and always gonna be
A big fucking part of me, punken är mitt liv
And thats the idea, the lesson ive learned
If you used to be punk, you never were

Still losing money, still losing sleep,
still hating life, still hating police
still taking my time to perfect the d beat
still got love for the streets

its a way of life and it is how we live
never grow up never give in
we live the revolution its a state of mind
class war, d-beat, DIY

fuck all you posers you dont know what its about
class war, backbeat, DIY
