Ineptitude, Is Calling!

I had a bass line roll into my head, kind of that rolling strum from the film Scott Pilgrim before the bass battle! XD BUT, then I tied it towards An Evening With El Diablo.

I wanted another revolutionist/political/chaos ranty ballad like poem/lyric :3

In terms of meaning, this is what I'm going for:

The perspective is from a single person. Let's be honest, me. The idea is to write in a way to inspire revolution, and the message is to revolt against those who sit back and do nothing. I think politics, as we see things done today, is a popularity contest that gets narrowed down to the people who say the least amount of stupid things whilst looking sharp in a suit. There are goals talked about, big goals set, and then forgotten after the fact, or handed to the next man/woman in-line. The renegade idea at play is that revolution and rebellion, frankly civil warfare, are what solidify a nation into some sort of core attribute or action. For most of my lifetime, it feels like fear gets pumped into the people rather than determination. Hope was the last rallying cry, but things seem to be business as always. This then acts as a rallying cry for a call to action before we risk our own demise.
