lyrics

Millions believe in a violent overthrowing of the state as the only plausible route to self-dignity

As the ground beneath their feet is sold, the poor are finding themselves displaced from their homes, raped beaten and exterminated

The right to exist has disappeared, eroded by state sponsored violence

Tell the futures market to beware the broken republic

Culture and the diversity of people will soon be a distant memory, leaving behind a clone population devoid of the ability to think for themselves.

Tell the futures market to beware the broken republic

Complicit in the whole sale of their own heritage is a corrupt government

Security forces answer to a private agenda

Tell the futures market to beware the broken republic

Tell the futures market to beware the broken republic

Stand up to be counted and you will be shot

When the choice between death or freedom is non-existent there is only one viable solution, the total destruction of the current system

There’s’ are war, on one side the poor and on the other side the sellers of the hills.
