Get ready to, make a stand
Get ready to, make a stand
'Cause if, we don't, fuckin', do it
Then no one's goin' to, no
Have you seen the scene on the street?
Do you care what's, goin' on?
Thousands, homeless, in the land of the free
But no one seems to think it's wrong
That's why we fuckin' wrote this song
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
This ship is sinkin', it's time we set it right
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
When the standards of, society
Are based, solely on greed
Humanity, compassion, do not define
What it means to succeed, no
For the poor, contempt and hate
From the rich, middle class, the state
Compassion, dumped for, apathy
The greatest nation ever seen?
That's fuckin' real hard to believe
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
This ship is sinkin', it's time we set it right
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
Socialized, socialized, mechanized, mechanized
To consume, everything in the world
Saturate, saturate, accumulate, accumulate
Your happiness, can be bought and be sold
Environment, environment, detriment, detriment
Is not, an issue of concern
Humanity, humanity or this insanity, insanity
The choice is yours and your choice alone
But you won't be alone
No, you won't be alone, yeah
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
This ship is sinkin', it's time we set it right
Take to the streets, 'cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down
Culture revolution
Revolution, in your head, on the street move
