It’s the beast, from Orwell’s nightmare awakened
screamin in the night all hope forsaken
The force that butchered a million Haitians
And the lies that legitimized iraq’s invasion
from Caesar to Caesar the torch is passed
as empires grow, and at last collapse
the cancerous creation of a mythical past
designed to glorify the cannons blast
and if might makes right then all hope is lost
Because military madmen will pay any cost
In other peoples blood, to meet their ends
And they’re not interested in making amends
It’s the jackboot stomping on a human face
The fascist future they tryna create
Sadistic indifference, mindless greed
That would cut a child’s throat just to watch her bleed
It’s the riot cops nightstick, raining blows
As they feast on the flesh of fallen foes
The cannibal economy where capital flows
Dictate the diets of carrion crows
As the rich get richer, poverty spreads
the rights of the people are torn to shreds
we’re sheep in a slaughterhouse, being led
on a one way road, you better check your head
Death runs raging in the new world order
From guantamo bay, where they practice torture
To the killing fields of a thousand ghetto’s
Making men like machines with minds of metal
We’re all stuck in the system like rats in a maze
And most can’t even see the bars of this cage
It’s freedom for the few, tyranny for the rest
A neo-liberal hell where there’s less and less
chance to make change and turn it around
Before the oceans rise and we all get drowned
But as long as even one, person keeps fighting
There’s still hope that we could strike like lightning
And millions of people all over this earth
Are still struggling for all that their worth
To shake off the chains of all oppression
Fuck Marxism, we’ve learned our lesson
start at the grassroots, talking to our neighbors
cuz neither god nor vanguard will be our savior
This time we’ve got to do this shit right
Give the power to the people, and light the night
