Ballot Or The Bullet Lyrics - Van Halen Iii - Van Halen

Give me liberty or give me death 

No truer words have ever been said 

Well are you prepared for your very last breath? 

Don't you dare start what you cannot finish 

So when we face, face the adversary 

No longer are we the minority 

And when history repeats her hour 

The pendulum will swing, swing into power 

Though not in vain like our forefathers 

Freedom, never had no room for cowards 

For in the end, there will be equality 

By any means necessary

The ballot or the bullet 

The choice is up to you 

The ballot or the bullet 

Tell me what you gonna do 

The sword or the pen 

Can be held by the same hand 

What's it gonna take to liberate? 

An emancipation, a false proclamation? 

All these token words that you legislate 

Sound a little bit absurd. Hey! And a little too late 

When a house is divided, it just will not stand 

Once it's decided, a line drawn in the sand 

Ah! The ballot or the bullet 

The choice is up to you 

The ballot or the bullet 

Tell me what you gonna do 

The sword or the pen 

Can be held by the same hand

The ballot or the bullet 

The choice is up to you 

The ballot or the bullet 

Tell me what you gonna do 

The ballot or the bullet 

The choice is up to you 

The ballot or the bullet 

Tell me what you gonna do 

The sword or the pen can be 

The sword or the pen can be 

The sword or the pen can be 

The sword or the pen can be 

The sword or the pen can be 

held, held by the same hand!
