Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Say aha, aha
Say aha, aha

At night it's eating up your head
Backed against the wall
Got you in a tight place
Though you're not alone at all
Been fighting, trying to place a name on what it's called
Make you feel like a losing streak 'cause you know
But you're not involved

Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Say aha, aha
Say aha, aha

It's alright, 'cause everything they say
Doesn't make no sense
It's that time
I'm picking up my ass
Up from off the fence
Gonna blow a hole in this charade
It's self defense
I'm a army got a whole brigade in my two sense

Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Say aha, aha
Say aha, aha

Oh
Send in your torpedoes for all they know
Make a show, shake them up before you blow
'Cause they don't want no cure
No, you'd better find a way
Their aims not pure

Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Louder than they
Louder than they
Louder than they
Allow, allow
Say aha, aha
Say aha, aha

Say, say
