The time is here, To overcome fear and apathy That come from a lack of empathy; When the regular folks don’t need And those fueled by greed rule, When our leaders are fools Who only care about the rich And those who pay them.
This always is the birth Of the **** of earth and us With little fuss by the middle And even while they fiddle, Their Rome burns, they don’t learn. They watch the world turn And blame it on each other; Brother hates brother, Refuse to get together And end their enmity To defeat the real enemy.
It’s rule breaking It’s not just heartbreaking To see masses raise arms In dictator salutes to men; Recreating saviors again Who fail to rescue or save The rights of all from a grave Far too early dug for us. With little fuss.
The time is here, But too few choose to hear, Their toys and games too dear And their heroes too shallow While those between rich And being poor wallow and squeal While corporations deal and sell And waves of indignities swell And too few of us care As if Armageddon was never there And patiently waiting.
