You're not just a laborer, you're a source of value! You carry the burden, you build, but you're the one with the lightest pockets! They call you "hard workers," but that's just a cover-up to cover up the "harsh system" that saps your energy! Don't ask "what for," but ask "why" — why do you produce everything, but all you get are scraps? Your fatigue isn't destiny, it's evidence of structural injustice! Unite, because you're the ones who should be —not the ones being trampled on— but the ones who determine the direction of history!

We're not in this together & truth be told we never were Our history is of dissent Our future – one side's voice unheard La Batalla de Girón – A wave of fire undeterred We've become tomorrow's spokesmen Unleashed our tongue upon the world We're never in this together Your war is one of treachery Unending plunder of our home For every Empire's century Our war is fought when there's no more To choose but sheer necessity The once subdued & dispossessed No hope. No fear. No property 'cause we are not in this together & all curtains are bound to fall Once our longest march draws near The last of powers to dissolve As we watch all Suns set On the crowns of the few The hands of the oppressors Transparent yet unseen As we walk down every street Dancing to the tune The glorious creak of the decaying capitalist machine We'll never be in it together It's you or us, no in between It's earth or ash, it's life or death It's all or none, & we will win 05/11/20 N.B.
