The Uprising

There will be time, there will be time,
To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;
There will be time to murder and create,
There will be time to destroy and manipulate.
There will be time to plant the seed,
To stir up ash, To fuel the fire
There will be time to take it back,
To win it all.
There will be time to burn the suits,
Tear down leaders and their recruits.
We are hungry, we are poor,
They have the power but we have more.
We are the masses full of desperation,
Driven to disasters, misery and starvation.
There will be time to take our freedom
Escape the clutches of those so loathsome
And when it's time I'll lead you all,
Fighting, Raging against the wall,
Tearing down the fences high
Let the fires light up the sky
We're full of anger, full of hate
Driven this way by a cruelty state.
Born into a world that discriminates
Don't blame us for fighting back
It's all we can do...
