Prophets of Rage continue to keep their finger on the pulse of American society, making their latest musical statement with the new song and video for "Pop Goes the Weapon." The track offers a pretty frank statement on America's gun culture and the recent flurry of mass shootings.

Prior to the new video release, Prophets of Rage teased of bit of what was to come on social media, explaining, "Warning! The following video contains content that some viewers MAY NOT find disturbing. That's pretty fucked up." They weren't wrong, as the clip for the song features weaponry production line footage, newspaper headlines and a running scroll of the mass shooting incidents in the U.S. that includes the cities and number of people killed in each attack.

For a closer look at the lyrical statement on the matter, the lyrics are listed below.

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

What ya tryin’ to bother me for

Don’t want none of what you’re sellin’

I know you’re rotten to the core

So my 44 mags about to put one in your melon Last night one of my neighbors got held up for the paper

But the popos never came

They won’t do you any favors

Say prayers

So many layers

Some things will never change HA HA HA

This afternoon got caught up

At a red light, in the line of sight

Of these mother fuckers from the other night

Seems like the right time pullin’ out his life line

Any time you threaten mine

Gonne be a fight See I’m numb just lookin’

For a reason for my finger

To be squeezing on the trigger

Through another killin’ season One gun two gun three guns four

So many guns keep on runnin' out the store Pop goes the weapon

You better keep on steppin’

Pop pop goes the weapon

Pop pop

HA HA HA HA Pop pop goes the weapon

You better keep on steppin’

Pop pop goes the weapon

Pop pop

HA HA HA Who’s that knockin’ on my door

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

HA HA HA Feelin’ my soul leave my body

La dee da dee

Somebody got me

I don’t even know his name

Started fightin’ at a party

No karate

Hammers droppin’,

But the popos never came Lightheaded and I’m dizzy

My vision fuzzy

I get the feelin’ it’s the end of the game

I’m on the television talk of me

Ask who was he, ‘cause they don’t love me

That’s when the fuckin’ popos came Pop goes the weapon

You better keep on steppin’

Pop pop goes the weapon

Pop pop

HA HA HA HA Pop, Pop goes the weapon

You better keep on steppin’

Pop pop goes the weapon

Pop pop

HA HA HA Yeah

Pop goes the weapon

You better keep on steppin’

Pop pop goes the weapon

Pop pop goes the weapon Pop goes the weapon

You better keep on steppin’

Pop pop goes the weapon

Pop pop

HA HA HA Who’s that knockin’ on my door

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

Who’s that knockin’ on my door

"'Pop Goes The Weapon' reflects the ongoing gun violence happening in America," stated B Real. "Guns are both the subject of religious worship AND huge profits in the United States," added Tom Morello. "Combined with emboldened white nationalism the recent epidemic of massacres is little surprise. 'Pop Goes The Weapon' channels our 'thoughts & prayers' through Marshall stacks & microphones."

"Pop Goes the Weapon" is now available for streaming and via digital service providers. Find out how to get it via the platform of your choosing here.
