lyrics

It's a simple solution, it's in front of our faces
It's just a matter of stopping being so damn complacent.
It's better for you and it's better for me.
And even better for the folks who got it worst, don't you see.
And I know that you're scared, But you're just unaware
Our collectivist goal will help folks everywhere
Except for the ones keeping poor people down
There's a different plan for them, but I'll say it again:

Though on paper it's simple, it don't come without struggle.
The pale faced artist won't be leading the hustle.
Can I count on you to understand what to do?
We sit back and observe and then we act on what we’ve learned.

And even when there's a lot we understand
It's far from our place to be the first to stand
But we have a role and our weight we will pulled​.
No point of unity without principle.

The book of lies we were raised to believe
Keeps the cycle spinning on power and greed.
The liberal fools who think ideas are equal
Are in the way of giving real power to the people.

When conditions are set, it’ll be time to act
It’s been done before well, as a matter of fact.
How much more will the planet revolve
‘Til we see that the riddle of history is solved?

These institutions we subscribe to so blindly
Are really just ingrained into our brains, so I'll remind you.
If we want to achieve liberation,
We're gonna have to destroy the colonialist nations.

But take deep breath because it's much more in depth.
Be mindful of theory then act step by step.
If you are able please come join the fight.
Rudies of the world unite!
