911 For Peace
It's in the paper every day You see it in the headlines
and you feel so sick As another life leaves this world - this world so
full of hate - but short! Short on compassion, short on humanity
Asking myself in vain, shaken by the shock... "Do we even have a chance?"
I don't want to die I don't want to kill I don't want to die I don't want
to kill We are all human It's time to prove it This is a plea for peace
(world peace) To the oppressors of the world (and to...) To the leaders
of nations, Corporate profit takers, To the every day citizen Greed, envy,
fear, hate- the competition has to stop! When you see someone down
- now is the time to pick 'em up Set our difference aside and never look
back! I don't want to die I don't want to kill I don't want to die
I don't want to kill We are all human It's time to prove it Isn't everybody
tired of the fighting? Isn't everybody tired of the killing?
Isn't everybody tired of the dying? Hatred? Violence?
Fighting? Killing? Dying? I don't want to die I don't
want to kill I don't want to die I don't want to kill We are all human
It's time to prove it.
Seattle Was A Riot
Seattle was a riot, they tried to pin on us But
we didn't show up, with gas and billy clubs An un-armed mass of thousands,
just trying to be heard But there are no world leaders- that want to hear
our words. Ohhh. Why must we riot Why must we protest Just
to be heard - by the world? The World Bank's greed and lies, digs
graves in 3rd world lands And fills them with the remains of exploited
workers Or displaced native peoples, and destroyed ecosystems Under the
guise of progress, relief, and tech assistance. Ohhh. Since
the dawn of history -the few who own control Have bent and rewrote history-how
they want it to go They try to control what we learn-and take away our
rights Cause when the masses round the world unite That's a force they
can not fight We'll fight for our We'll fight for our We'll fight for our
We'll fight for our Rights! Sitting in what was designated the "Cooperation
Zone" by Seattle Police Sergeant Richard Goldstein They sat heads bowed-
listening as the police methodically shot pepper spray- one eye at a time
into the eyes of their passive brothers and sisters Whore like police-
playing judge, jury, and executioner for their pimp like bosses in the
World Band and W.T.O. This is not justice. This is not the role of, The
Servants of the People Such tyranny brings ruling classes crashing to the
ground and contemporary societies to an end.
