“Music often takes the artistic lead in fighting social injustice and as the world gets more contentious everyday we see music following suit. ‘You Said You Wanted a Fight’ highlights the fact we need to stand up and let our voices heard.
CRITICAL ACTION had this to say about the track. ‘At moments like these - when social tension is high and people are told resistance is futile or dangerous the song insists that this cycle isn’t new. Repeating the line “you’ve been here a thousand times,” it connects current struggles to past victories and treats memory itself as a form of resistance. This is message-forward, politically conscious music meant to be engaged with, not background listening.’”
