Discover the story of the song > Brats In Battalions – Adolescents

The lyrics are about a group of people referred to as "brats in battalions" who are ready to fight and believe that might makes right. The protagonist questions whether power and strength truly determine what is right in the world and wonders if using violence is justified as a way to achieve their goals. They criticize those who glorify war and ignore the real consequences of violence, particularly on children who grow up with a fascination for guns and end up using them to hurt others. The protagonist ultimately concludes that seeking revenge only leads to bitterness and that there must be a better way to resolve conflicts.
