Money Will Burn
03:54
|
|||
It's coming like a wave about to break upon the shore
We're tired from our travels and we're knocking on your door
We want it all, blow the roof off the walls
If you want to see how it works, this is how it starts
We don't do what we're told, we won't buy what we're sold
What we want is something bigger than your malls can hold
They say our day will come, they say we've got to wait
But if you start waiting now, you'll be waiting in your grave
Burn it all down
Light a match and watch it erupt
Money will burn
And we'll be standing there in the sun
If you're at the top
Close your eyes, get ready to drop
Hope you had fun
Yeah you know you had a good run
For every one of you there's a million more of us
Your life was so easy 'cause we made all your stuff
They say we can have it too if you just work harder
But they're never gonna tell you they were born into power
Now we want it all, blow the roof off the walls
Kick the planet into gear, all the roads end here
If you have a lot of money, you're soon gonna see
All you have is imaginary numbers on a screen
Burn it all down
Light a match and watch it erupt
Money will burn
And we'll be standing there in the sun
If you're at the top
Close your eyes, get ready to drop
Hope you had fun
Hey you know you had a good run
Money will burn
When the tidal wave comes
We'll come out of our holes, fill the streets like an ocean
Now let's burn it all down
As sure as the world will turn your money will burn

East Berlin
03:03
|
|||
well now
we’ll go wherever we want
doesn’t matter where we’re coming from
it’s a great big world with lots of places to live
now they’re trying to stop you gettin in
but we don’t want to live in East Berlin
we’re born to roam the planet
to travel where we want
don’t let em take your freedom
no matter where you’re from
you got the right to come here
your home is up to you
the place where you belong is wherever you choose
so now we’ll go wherever we want
doesn’t matter where we’re coming from
we’re all here now because we did the same thing
now they’re trying to stop you gettin in
but we don’t want to live in East Berlin
they just want somebody to blame
for what they feel was taken away
but it’s the one percent you should blame
not some people from far away
because we’ll go wherever we want
doesn’t matter where we’re coming from
it’s a great big world with lots of places to live
now they’re trying to stop you gettin in
but we don’t want to live in East Berlin
you’re living in a prison
you’re keeping people in
you’re trying to keep yourself safe
you’re keeping out my friends
well everyone’s afraid of what they don’t understand
but you don’t even know what you don’t understand
they just want somebody to blame
for what they feel was taken away
but it’s the one percent you should blame
not some people from far away
well now we’ll go wherever we want
doesn’t matter where we’re coming from
you know that they say we can only live there
but the world never built a barrier
and every wall we build is made of fear
now East Berlin is coming here
so watch out
|
||||
3. |
||||
the cold hold of a falling in
taken out of phase and floating forever
the blind high of a rising up
watching every ray all coming together
you’re
bled white in the black of night
no sunlight coming to save you
within sight of the evening sky
like candles burning a hole through
this side of the great divide
your weight will carry your soul to
don’t fade while you make your way
stand tall they’ll follow behind you
if you’re falling down
don’t make a sound
everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise
the freezing wind
is creeping in
but everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise
a weak hand
on a million grains of sand stacked up
and sturdy in the wind
a warm sound from the world to
balance out the state it’s keeping you in
but still you’re
bled white in the black of night
no sunlight coming to save you
within sight of the evening sky
like candles burning a hole through
this side of the great divide
your weight will carry your soul to
don’t fade while you make your way
stand tall they’re coming behind you
if you’re falling down
don’t make a sound
everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise
if you feel the same
you feel the pain
but everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise
in sight of the evening sky
like candles burning a hole through
don’t fade while you make your way
go faster than you know how to
the freezing moon
is making room
but everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise up
everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise
everyone’s got the light to make the sun rise

The Bourgeoisie
03:10
|
|||
someday when you’re not here
everything’s gonna come back round
you’ll see what I mean
we got everything that we need to overthrow your greed
but for now
we’re so confused we vote for doom
who voted for the bourgeoisie?
it was you and me
we drop our guillotine
when we’re voting for the bourgeoisie
we keep on taking, keep on taking it now
til we figure out
all that you have to do
is vote for a third party but you choose
to keep on getting screwed
we’re so confused we vote for doom
who voted for the bourgeoisie?
it was you and me
they own the globe you know
and you and me approved the deal for the things they steal
we’re all responsible for propping up the bourgeoisie
yeah it’s you and me
we drop our guillotine
when we’re voting for the bourgeoisie
but we’ll fight it til we get it
til the truth is standing tall
and they’re on the ground
we can take ‘em down
if we vote them out
we’re so confused we vote for doom
who voted for the bourgeoisie?
it was you and me
they own the globe you know
and you and me approved the deal for the things they steal
we’re all responsible for propping up the bourgeoisie
yeah it’s you and me
so drop the guillotine
but drop it on the bourgeoisie

Words Fade Away
03:02
|
|||
they say talk is cheap
and I’m inclined to agree
my belief
is that most people say nothing
when they speak
there’s no message to receive
just a need
for somebody to listen
but I say
words fade away
only the deeds remain
what really matters
the things you said you’d do
or the things that you did
when our words fade away
and only our actions stay
what’s gonna matter
the things you talked about
or the things you got done
so do what you want to do
because talking only proves
your lips can move
yeah it’s easy to say it
but hard to do
so when the moment comes for you
what will you choose
it’s a risk that you take
but I say
words fade away
only the deeds remain
what really matters
the things you said you’d do
or the things that you did
when our words fade away
and only our actions stay
what’s gonna matter
the things you talked about
or the things you got done
|

Speak
03:02
|
|||
speak
do it however you want to
speak
nobody should ever stop you
don’t keep your feelings inside
speak up and speak your mind
say what you wanna say
cuz you know you got the right
some people say
some words of hate
should be a crime for saying
well that’s fine today
but who’s to say
just where the lines get painted
you say it’s hate speech
I say it’s speech
I might not agree but
you gotta keep it free
so speak
do it however you want to
speak
nobody can ever stop you
don’t keep your feelings inside
speak up and speak your mind
say what you wanna say
cuz you know you got the right
yeah everybody knows
that everything goes away someday
and freedom of speech
is something that they can take away
so keep on talking how you want
so nobody tries to take your say
your only way to be free
is keep your voice loud
and let them see that
we will speak wherever we go
we will not be kept inside a free speech zone
assembly isn’t a place
we will speak up anywhere we say
go use your voice
or lose your voice
some people wanna take it
it ain’t up to me
I disagree
cuz other people say that
we get the government that we deserve and
I say we get the government
that we demand
so speak
do it however you want to
speak
nobody should ever stop you
don’t keep your feelings inside
speak up and speak your mind
say what you wanna say
cuz you know you got the right
so speak
do it however you want to
speak
nobody should ever stop you

Billionaires
03:00
|
|||
the only thing you make
is your money move around
you got the cash
but we’re the ones digging up the ground
you run the world
but what do you do to make it run
you got no right to what you got
this was built by us
but billionaires say
nobody else could make
the choices they make for us
but all of their stuff was given
while everything we have we made ourselves
cuz we ain’t no billionaires
we work real hard but never do get a share
you say that freedom is for all
but some are just a little more free than us
no we’ll never be no billionaires
we don’t wreck lives
we’re people who care
because we ain’t no billionaires
and everyday
you’re making that wealth that goes to them
they got the goods
but where do they think they’re coming from
you try to make your own way
but no matter what you do
the billionaire you’re working for
takes it all from you
but billionaires say
nobody else could make
the choices they make for us
and all of their stuff was given
while everything we have we made ourselves
cuz we ain’t no billionaires
we work real hard but never do get a share
you say that freedom is for all
but some are just a little more free than us
no we’ll never be no billionaires
we don’t wreck lives
we’re people who care
because we ain’t no billionaires
we got something better
someday you’ll be where we are right now
and we’ll be the same as today

Take the System Down
02:56
|
|||
we got raised on mininum wage and all the ways of breaking out
the only thing we really care about is now
we got lots of bills to pay but don’t know what we’re paying for
the way the system works right now is such a bore
it’s time we take the system down
we’re tired of being led around
it’s time to take the system down
I’m done with shutting up my mouth
now it’s time we take the system down
we’re tired of being upside down
yeah it’s time to take the system down
you get tired of trying to get hired
to a fallback that only holds you back
you’ll never know if you’re scared to go broke and live by chance
so give it all or nothing at all
cuz there’s no one to help you when you fall
we all breathe by the skin of our teeth if we can breathe at all
it’s time we take the system down
we’re tired of being led around
it’s time to take the system down
I’m done with shutting up my mouth
yeah it’s time to take the system down
we’re tired of being upside down
now it’s time to take the system down
the future’s calling and I think I’m gonna go
but tell me all the things that you think that I don’t know
we’ll see what happens when we do
but I’ll tell you if we don’t and we wait
it’s gonna break our bones
sometimes things need a litle tweak
but sometimes you gotta wipe it clean
|

Where & When
04:01
|
|||
it’s in us first thing in the morning
we can feel it in our bones
we don’t wanna be your captives
we will never kiss your throne
you’ll be falling someday soon
and we’ll be watching when you do
we will show you how your reign caves in
we got lots of ways to do it
only question is where & when
we did everything they told us
followed every single rule
we worked as hard as someone can work
the only obstacle was you
you’ll be falling someday soon
and we’ll be watching when you do
we will show you how your reign caves in
we got lots of ways to do it
only question is where & when
we got lots of ways to do it
only question is where & when
yeah we feel it in our bones
cuz you got no right to a throne
you know everyone is the same
so why should we be your slaves
you’re the alpha male for now
but we’re coming to take you down
our planet will be run by all of us
the only question left is where & when
|

Someday
03:22
|
|||
this world doesn’t care what we’re fighting for
the right side is a fantasy that’s in your mind
but now we’re floating in a quiet sea
and for now we kick and scream
and it’s all fun, no harm done, but
someday
when our problems are far away
where will we be
someday
they’ll be brushing our dirt away
we don’t care about the billion other people here
we can’t see where we’ve been and where we’re gonna be
so let’s stop before we launch the atom bomb
if you’re right it isn’t gonna matter if there’s no one left so
someday
when the future is here to stay
take a good look
someday
we may find ourselves far away
but for now we’re here
and fighting out of fear
your honor is already gone
so take your armor off
now everybody’s saying you should do for me
well you should add a billion branches to your family tree
because
someday
when our problems are far away
where will we be
someday
when the universe calls our name
someday
we may find a new place to stay
and build a new world
or someday
we may find our world wiped away
and called a New World
|
||||
11. |
||||
well you know we try
just as hard as we can but we just get by
we got the deck stacked against us every time
so why would we keep your traditions alive?
just let ‘em die
cuz a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
you can pay us all day but what’s it all for
when a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
we’re just meat on the street to the people in control
a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
so give it back to the people that gave you what you own
a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
gonna find where the rich live knocking on their door
hello
we’re coming for you
hear your warning loud and clear
right now
go find a new way to make your money
you can start by working all day for nothing at all
cuz a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
you can pay us all day but what’s it all for
when a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
we’re just meat on the street to the people in control
a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
you get it back when you gamble cuz the money’s not yours
a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
we’re gonna find where the rich live knocking on their door
never gonna make it all okay
til everybody makes a decent wage
never gonna let your system win
til everybody knows what freedom is
everything’s gonna come back round
the change that’s coming in is gonna take you down
now your staff’s all gone
and you’re trying to hire another one
but you can go ahead and keep that money
cuz a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
you can pay us all day but what’s it all for
when a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
we’re just meat on the street to the people in control
a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
so give it back to the people that gave you what you own
a dollar ain’t a dollar no more
gonna find where the rich live knocking on their door
well they say hard work is the only thing
but some people get hung on their boot strap strings
and sometimes a little hand up means everything

Run for the Hills
02:55
|
|||
I can see the red lights turning on
everybody scared to do right if they might be wrong
people with no homeland need a home
and some people full of fear can’t lend a hand
that’s how the planet thinks of us
Americans, they’re all terrified
they scream like
save yourself
run for the hills
somebody’s coming with a bag of clothes
so save yourself
run for the hills
who are they, we better run for cover
look at them
don’t let ‘em in
anyone anywhere can’t be trusted
save yourself
run for the hills right now
we could save everybody there
problem is that we just don’t care
we don’t wanna help you
cuz we’re terrified of somebody else
that’s how the planet thinks of us and it’s justified
we’re just too scared to help
we scream like
save yourself
run for the hills
somebody coming with a bag of clothes
so save yourself
run for the hills
who are they, we better run for cover
look at them
don’t let ‘em in
anyone anywhere can’t be trusted
save yourself
run for the hills right now
I see those red lights all turning on
and it’s just like we done before
it’s in our past and we don’t learn
so
save yourself
run for the hills
somebody coming with a bag of clothes
so save yourself
run for the hills
who are they, we better run for cover
look at them
don’t let ‘em in
anyone anywhere can’t be trusted
save yourself
run for the hills from the huddled masses
|

13. |
keep it out of my face
03:17
|
|||
go buy your weapon now to keep you safe and sound
but that bullet’s more likely to put a hole in you
but go ahead wear your armour suit, I won’t mess with you
just keep your guns away from me cuz I’m exposed and free
and nobody gonna pull your arm, you good where you are
just keep your rifle out my face and we’ll be okay, okay?
you talking about the NRA I’m walking away
cuz all they wanna do is keep you dumb and buying their guns
they’re gunning for your money trying to make you scared
their greatest profit pusher is your fear
cuz they know crime makes people buy more guns
cuz when their money’s flowing that’s our blood
in their plan
on their hands
and nobody gonna pull your arm, you good where you are
just keep your rifle out my face and we’ll be okay, okay?
you talking about the NRA I’m walking away
cuz all they wanna do is keep you dumb and buying their guns
their guns are fine, it’s your right to have it just keep it out of my face
you can keep on stocking up just keep it out of my face
your rights stop where mine start, keep it out of my face
your rights stop where mine start, keep it out of my face
|

14. |
the way we win this
03:00
|
|||
get your gloves on and get ready for action
we’re gonna fight
until there’s someone on the ground
we don’t bow down
to the ones in power
we topple their tower
so
the winds are changing
in case you’re living underground
the way we win this
is if everybody’s voice is loud
the only way now
is if everybody gets behind
cuz the way we win this
is if everybody wins this time
with every shift
well there’s an equal reaction
it’s their world now
but we’re the ones with the world to gain
so let’s kick it in gear
there ain’t nothing to fear
so long as we’re here
cuz
the winds are changing
in case you’re living underground
the way we win this
is if everybody’s voice is loud
the only way now
is if everybody gets behind
cuz the way we win this
is if everybody wins this time
the choice is clear
the choice is simple
their side is fear
our side is wisdom
so stand and fight
now even harder
soon we’ll have won
so keep your fists up
cuz the winds are changing
in case you’re living underground
the way we win this
is if everybody’s voice is loud
the choice we’re left with
well you know it ain’t a choice at all
cuz the way we win this
is we’re either gonna fly or fall
yeah

Drones
03:06
|
|||
you’re inside
there’s no risk to you
safe inside your walls
a thousand miles removed
while we’re out here
you move your finger and we’re gone
cuz taking lives is what you do
first responders too
you wanna be on the good side
well it matters what you do
you can’t just say that your cause is right
and uphold it at any price
so when you kill someone
I hope you’re right
I hope that you know
every shape on your screen
cuz if you don’t then the real foe
is you and me
|

16. |
We're Coming
03:03
|
|||

whose planet they’re on
we’re coming
coming
meet the world you washed astray
it’s lining your shores now everyday
so line your pockets up while you can
cuz soon you won’t have much
you’ll spend your time living like us
you’ll stuff your heart with love
and learn why money was never enough
downward mobility is how you’re gonna move
get ready for the fall cuz we’re coming soon
but I don’t have to tell you
because everybody knows

just stand with the small
we’re coming
cuz the working class
always come when they’re called
we’re coming
coming
come and see your workforce now
we’re working to take your system down
and we’d be happy to hire you on
in a small supporting role
I know you love to be in control
but not with what you got
cuz people starve to death when you’re on top
downward mobility is how you’re gonna move
get ready for the fall cuz we’re coming soon
I don’t even have to tell you
because everybody knows
we’re coming
in a little while
you’ll be hanging with us
we’re coming
solidarity’s what they’re terrified of
|

if you do you gonna see what I mean
what we gonna do when they win
when all the crazy people get in
they’re gonna try to say how we live
but I don’t wanna be just a number
I don’t care what you believe
as long as it stays a belief
cuz once you try to put it on me
we’re gonna have a problem believe me
don’t tread on me
don’t tread on me, on me
no I ain’t your property

just go ahead and
try and take my rights away
come and take my speech away
if you come and take my soul away
then you’re gonna see what I mean
don’t tread on me
your crazy thoughts are fine inside your head
your rules fall flat on we who are well-read
wake up before the sun come sets on us
freedom was never stolen in a day
don’t tread on me

|
|||
nice try but we know when we’re being played
welcome to The Information Age

Watch Out
03:22
|
|||

I got my ear down, glued to the ground
and I’m ready for whatever may come now
so watch out
cuz I can see a dark cloud coming right about now
get your ears down, glued to the ground
and get ready for whatever may come now
don’t be scared of
all those screaming mobs
don’t you know that they’ll never win
but they did
now it’s time to learn
just who our country is
we should’ve been more scared
of all the foolish ones
now the foolish ones are us
take a page from the book of history
before they’re all burned up
take a stand while you can
cuz the rights we have
are being looked at
so watch out
I can see a dark cloud rolling in right now
I got my ear down, glued to the ground
and I’m ready for whatever may come now
so watch out
cuz I can see a dark cloud coming right about now
get your ears down, glued to the ground
and get ready for whatever may come now
here’s the world we made
now we lie in it
don’t get angry
use what you got and rise up
we can take ‘em down
and I can see it now
we were the ones
that we were waiting for
so get up and get to work
don’t respect the president
cuz he don’t respect you back
so get up, get to work
and reclaim this world
then they’ll say
watch out
I can see a dark cloud rolling in right now
I got my ear down, glued to the ground
and I’m ready for whatever may come now
so watch out
cuz I can see a dark cloud coming right about now

your guide your mind
03:49
|
|||
kill that voice inside your head
the one that you first met when you were just
drifting with the masses
up the hill to fetch a pail of what you now
know was manufactured
to distract you from the truth
so go do your thing
and let your guide just be your mind
when did we begin to see
the end of sight itself
we fall down like
lemmings deaf and blind three billion mice
see how they run
with heads cut off
and scared of shadows
now there’s eight more years of this
so please don’t vote blind
and let your guide just be your mind
we’re fading out like paint in the sun
we can’t erase our wants
they take us up
and we get tossed in the clouds
but then we fall back down
and that’s the part
when truth hits hard like a brick
and now we know it
a dream is no excuse for a lie
your mind should be your guide
so throw away the coolaid poured in your mind
destroy your lullabies
and put your faith in
something real for a change
your guide should be your mind
|

21. |
Here
03:45
|
|||
don’t worry about the planet we’re on
the things that you’re worried about have already come
they say someday the government won’t represent us
but don’t worry when they’ll do it
cuz it’s done
don’t sit there and wonder when it ends
when the storm is coming in
cuz it’s here, it’s here
so be clear
we know what the breeze is blowing in
what the future’s gonna bring
cuz it’s here, it’s here
so now don’t be scared
of all the things we’re gonna see
or where this road is gonna lead
cuz we’re here
don’t worry yourself
you say we got some dark clouds upwind
but can’t see the hurricane we’re standing right in
you’re so scared of the big bad storm coming near
don’t worry if we’ll get there
cuz we’re here
don’t wait for the future to begin
or for the storm that’s coming in
cuz it’s here, it’s here
so be clear
we know what the tide is washing in
what the future’s gonna bring
cuz it’s here, it’s here
so now don’t be scared
where that sound is coming from
or when the day is gonna come
cuz it’s here
the time to hold it back has come and passed
the government works for the corporate class
so please
do you really think you’re in control

Time for change
03:05
|
|||
you wanna change the system
well don’t vote for someone in it
if you choose the lesser evil
well you’re still choosing evil aren’t you
so here’s your government, look who’s running it
less by the people and more by the companies
the people see them selling our freedom
keeping us dumb cuz they know we can beat ‘em
everybody knows that it’s time for change
but we only just lean to the other way
they’re both just gonna say that it’s time for change
but we only get to choose out of two
I say they’re really both the same
it’s a big world of choices
so how come we only hear two voices
if you wanna see some progress
don’t look to someone in the congress
so here’s your government, look who’s running it
less by the people and more by the companies
the people see them selling our freedom
keeping us dumb cuz they know we can beat ‘em
everybody knows that it’s time for change
but we only just lean to the other way
they’re both just gonna say that it’s time for change
but we only get to choose out of two
I say they’re really both the same
so it’s time for change
but we only just lean to the other way
they’re both just gonna say that it’s time for change
but we only get to choose out of two
I say they’re really both the same

Running
03:19
|

I can feel it coming cuz I never let it out
it’s less a feeling than my own infinity of sound
one sound a day is
enough to keep the doctor in your brain away
no one can pay
so stop and feel what living is like
and you might feel alive
but you don’t ever stop you just keep
running running running running
take a minute, look at your world
and find out who yourself is
you don’t even know because you’re
running running running running
free yourself of keeping in touch
with useless information
listen to your thoughts and stop your
running running running running
you’re the source of everything
if you listen to your voice
but you can’t ever hear it cuz you’re
running running running running out
so take a minute and just
spend some time inside yourself
let the universe explore you
through the planets in your head
you’re not attached here
there’s an echo in your head
that keeps you spinning round
let it take you down
now stop and feel what living is like
and you might feel alive
but you don’t ever stop you just keep
running running running running
take a minute, look at your world

Capitalists
03:09
|
|||
if you make pipelines
or you make bombs
your profits go up
when people fall down
your private prisons
are filling up
you make your living
by taking from us
cuz what you’re selling’s taking lives
you sell your weapons to both sides
they make their money
don’t care who lives
they fill their pockets
they’re capitalists
when they go bankrupt
they beg for it
but they won’t help us out
they’re capitalists
keep making money
keep taking lives
your one objective
sustaining your high
your only mission
is making bank
cuz you don’t care who
gets left in your wake
up in your tower things seem fine
but you’re only as strong as what you can buy
they make their money
don’t care who lives
they fill their pockets
they’re capitalists
when they go bankrupt
they beg for it
but they won’t help us out
they’re capitalists
the only way you’ll learn
is if your stocks all burn
cuz money talks
it’s the only thing you ever hear but
we’re gonna drown you out
our sound resounds
that’s when your capital runs out

but we got a lot of love
and either way we can’t take it
when we die baby
so let’s live for now that it comes to us

yeah they know what you say and who you’re talking to
they’re watching you and everything you do
they say it’s for security but tell me whose
when the government is saying they’re gonna keep you safe

cuz they’re watching you and everything you do
yeah they know what you say and who you’re talking to
they’re watching you and everything you do
they say it’s for security but tell me whose
but how can we stop them when we can’t see what they see in there
they’re watching from the inside out
everyday they see everything that we do
but can you tell me what you’ve learned
I don’t think so better go worry about you
cuz you don’t seem to know what freedom means
it’s a concept foreign to all that you do
so go and read the Constitution please

cuz you gotta wanna hang it all out yeah
so let’s see all your faults
all hanging out all over the place

let your own self get found
forget the road less traveled
go through the woods
you can go up, you can rise to the top

falling from the branch
03:28
|
|||
keep yourself out of my backyard
won’t even let you get that far
you wanna come cut down my tree
you’re gonna have to come cut down me
gonna have to tell you now to step right back
I won’t be counting to ten
I got my head screwed on real tight higher than the cloud line
but nobody’s here for good
we come from the Earth
we bloom
we wilt
and we don’t even know
we’re falling from the branch
mankind’s gonna shrink and die
probably blow ourselves to the sky
we think we run it but at most this planet’s our hostess
and we won’t be Her guests for good
we came from the dirt
evolved, devolved
now we’re grasping for life
and falling from the branch
evolution’s do come full circle
look for it
the season’s we’re selling will come back around
follow the sound
of truth coming down
degrade in the desert
flake in the forrest
waste in the wind

Rise and Shine
03:03
|
|||
rise and shine
before your rights all burn up big and bright
cuz nobody here’s gonna stop ‘em ‘fore they try
we all fall down
cuz it don’t make a sound ’til they burn to the ground
I wanna go where the cold wind blows
where everything’s home
and no one’s gonna scold ya
all of y’all folks
just doing what they told ya
it’s time to get told
they’re kicking in the door
so run and hide ’til you decide to
rise and shine
before your rights all burn up big and bright
cuz nobody here’s gonna defend ‘em with their life
they all burn down
cuz it don’t make a sound ’til they fall to the ground
I’d rather rise than be hypnotized
by corporate signs and pretty little price lines
profits go up when conciousness is low
but when we get woke we’re kicking in the door
so run and hide ’til you decide to
rise and take your own mind
don’t let ‘em hold your thoughts
you got your head now to worry ‘bout not your soul
so give ’til the wall gives in
and walk ’til the walkway ends
if you don’t kill with kindness you’ll die by fear
the power’s always like a python that’s creeping up
ready to bite just when everything is fine
so we’re getting ourselves together
finding out where the movement lives
we aim our eyes at what’s on the rise
say hi to the world that’s coming
I don’t know how we don’t win
if everyone gets their two cents in
hate won’t take
cuz we’re gonna make sure
everyone gets to rise just the same
we’re here to say
rise and shine
before your rights all burn up big and bright
cuz nobody here’s gonna stop ‘em ‘fore they try
we all fall down
cuz it don’t make a sound ’til they burn to the ground

A Moving Train
03:01
|
|||
the train is moving so we can’t stay neutral now
by keeping silent we are taking part
the train is moving so we ain’t bipartisan
you can’t be neutral on a moving train
the world is moving round in different directions
so you can’t be neutral cuz there’s no standing still
you either ride a train or you build your own one
so go where you want
and know where you are
because the train is moving so we can’t be neutral now
by staying silent we are taking part
the train is moving so we ain’t bipartisan
you can’t be neutral on a moving train
on your way to where you are
you either drove or rode along
if you don’t stop and take a stand then you ride along
so go where you want
and know where you are
because the train is moving so we can’t stay neutral now
by keeping silent we are taking part
the train is moving so we ain’t bipartisan
you can’t be neutral on a moving train
you’re stuck inside this train
but everything that you do
is up to you
when you just go along
you lose your essence of you
so speak your truth
just watch the train as it moves
it isn’t moving for you

be with my favorite person

I'm saying what I want, you can't censor me
as long as I'm myself what will be will be
I have to be the true me
it can rain until the clouds fill up the sea
the sun can shine until the pavement burns your feet
but we don't care which way the tides going
if you can think then you can think for yourself
no one's gonna speak for me
cause you know I got a mouth and it works great
|

That's on You
02:51
|

I pay my taxes to
the department of defense
and I have some words for you
and what you do on our behalf
cuz you've got troops on their foreign soil
and they're not afraid to die for your cause
but we're not down with you
and what you do in our name
the civilians that you kill, that's on you
that's on you
when innocent people die
you say it's just the cost of war
but how does that work
when you're not the one who pays the price
cuz you've got troops on their foreign soil
and they're not afraid to die for your cause
but we're not down with you
what you do in our name
the civilians that you kill, that's on you
that's on you
