about

Power to the losers is the song for all you ‘losers’ out there. United together, let’s untwist the meaning of success into something you believe in. So many people don’t see beyond financial benefit - and, because of that, they think we are the losers? Keep doing what you do. We aren’t the problem, we are the solution!

lyrics

We gather all our truth and pieces
Find a place to bear our strength
Set it into motion -
Freeing, believing there’s room to try our best
Within the limits of our boundaries
And within the rules of the game
And then you notice, you go un-noticed
Well come on, we’re broken too

I won’t play this senseless game

Give the power to the loser
The chooser, the shaker, the fake
Give a reason for the bright eyed
The too-denied, to stand up and say
Give the power to the loser
The chooser the shaker, the fake
We ran at it with our eyes closed
And the field chose
Now we’re not here anymore

We are the ones who control the future
The place that brings to bear our strength
Don’t wait your turn
Just turn away from the mob
That challenges the vigour of our own vision
Envision the way you want the world to see your best
Imagination - the key, the core, the mother
Hold on, we’re coming too

I won’t play this senseless game

Show your power to the losers
The choosers, the breakers, the fakes
Sock it to them with the power
The louder you cry your belief
That we’re gonna have to fight this delusion we are the ones beneath
This gathering sky that eludes them
And you won’t hear anymore
