Background

"You can be a zebra or join the lion pride. You have to rebel against your circumstances, laziness, and mediocrity—not the system."

Music video

The music video was uploaded to the band's VEVO channel on YouTube on October 8 2012. The video features clips of the band backstage and performing the song live on the American Capitalist Tour.
