Hands Held High Lyrics » Linkin Park
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Turn my mic up louder, I got to say somethin’
Lightweights step it aside when we come in
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumpin’
People on the street, they panic and start runnin’
Words on loose-leaf sheet complete comin’
I jump in my mind and summon the rhyme I’m dumpin’
Healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drummin’
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumpin’
Fuck that, I wanna see some fists pumpin’
Risk something, take back what’s yours
Say somethin’ that you know they might attack you for
‘Cause I’m sick of being treated like I have before
Like it’s stupid standin’ for what I’m standin’ for
Like this war’s really just a different brand of war
Like it doesn’t cater to rich and abandon poor
Like they understand you in the back of the jet
When you can’t put gas in your tank
These fuckers are laughin’ their way to the bank and cashin’ the check
Asking you to have compassion and have some respect
[Refrain: Mike Shinoda]
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way
Stutterin’ and mumblin’ for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watchin’ at the end of the day
In the livin’ room laughin’, like, “What did he say?”

About Linkin Park’s Hands Held High from Minutes to Midnight (2007)
“Hands Held High” criticizes rich men and politicians, who use their political force just to get themselves a better life. The song uses a hymn-like beat, as though it is being sung in a church.
Booklet Notes: Early in the writing process, Rick suggested the band experiment by contrasting together unexpected elements. Because the instrumental idea is known as “
Song Q
” sounded primed for melodic singing, Rick suggested the opposite be done. The songs pipe organ and marching snare proved the perfect musical bed for the two most inspired verses Mike has ever delivered.
