lyrics

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

Mayaenova Austin, Texas

Jam-packed with juicy 60s drum samples, spicy 70s-style bass licks, and caustic Bernie-cratic lyrics decrying the rampant income and wealth inequality ever since, DONOR REPUBLIC is a 20-song ode to freedom from corporatism, crony capitalism, and the corrupt political system in which we live. ... more
