LIBERATION

A million dead people does not equal liberation
But I felt so liberated tonight
A step in the right direction
Seeing so many others following my plight
We can do it, I know it
There’s a need for revolution
And the time is coming
For lighting bombs and diffusion
Need to set off a million more bombs
In the minds of the people
And show them the light
That we too can be equal
Standing in a crowd knowing we all want the same thing
Freedom, justice and peace we all sing
Tears well up in my eyes
At the injustice of the World
People are starving and dying and crying
Yet the Royals are sleeping on beds of pearls
We need to go to the root of the cause
Grab some weed killer
Take it to the moors
Set fire to the rain
Make the insane go sane
Make them see our pain
Free Palestine
Free Gaza
Free these trapped souls and minds
Stop them walking behind
Walk in front and sprint on water
Be proud of who you are
You’re somebody’s daughter
And you’re somebody’s son
There’s a mark on the Moon
But beauty is imperfect
Nothing is beautiful
Unless it has a defect
And the World is full of them
But they’re all things we can eradicate
Hold my hand and then hold the person’s next to you
Together we can make history
Re-write fate
I have tears in my eyes
‘Cause now I see how much is possible
Let’s change the world and all its hate
Let’s live and let live, and love and mate
I know we can do it
The passion is there
Turn the oxygen we breathe into
Fuel-filled air
It's burning inside me
It actually physically hurts my heart
To know that so many innocent civilians
Have been moped out with darts
Spiked with the poisons of greed
And hate and discrimination
There’s so much to be done
But so little time
In my time on Earth I gotta do what I can
To make the tiniest difference in the mind of any man
Any woman, any child, any teen
I want you to know my words truly mean
Something to me
Gotta say thank you to Lowkey for being an absolute G
And Jody Mcintyre for pulling down a cop
And for all the other inspirationals tonight
Who share my same sight
This Capitalist society has won for too long
It’s time for justice to prevail
I wanna be there to see it hail
I wanna see the flags of freedom blowing in the wind
I wanna hear the silenced voices sing
This is our time
Let’s make it happen
Good overcomes evil
We’ve always known that, been taught that
Let's make that reality

Let's do it
STANDARD.
