SCREAM IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS

THERE ARE WHISPERS IN THE ALLEYS,
DEALS INKED IN BARS AND BACK CAFÉS.
PUPPET MEN IN POLISHED SUITS —
THEY LIE WHILE THE WORLD DECAYS.

TONGUE-TIED — FEAR HAS SEALED OUR LIPS,
TRUTH BURIED IN THE BILE THEY SPIT.
COLD LIES SPILL FROM EVERY SCREEN,
AND THE STENCH IS THICK AND MEAN.
LED LIKE CATTLE DOWN THE TRACK,
WILLING STEPS — NO LOOKING BACK.
THE BLACK TRAINS LOAD, THE COGS BEGIN,
ANOTHER CULL, ANOTHER SIN.

IT WON’T BE SHOWN ON THE NEWS,
BUT IT’S WRITTEN IN BLOOD ON THE WALLS.
THIS FRACTURE CANNOT HOLD
THIS SYSTEM’S ABOUT TO FALL.

SCREAM IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
WE RISE, WE BREAK THE CHAINS.
RAISE UP YOUR FISTS AND BANNERS
LET FIRE CLEANSE THE STAINS.
SHOUT IT FROM THE RUINS!
A BETTER DAWN MUST BURN.
TAKE BACK WHAT THEY HAVE STOLEN
MAKE THEM TWIST AND TURN!

PARASITES BEHIND THE DOORS
HAVE DRAINED US DRY, DEMANDED MORE.
WITH HIDDEN LAWS, THEY FEED THEIR CREED,
WHILE WE STARVE AND THEY STILL BLEED.
WE’VE BEEN NUMB, ASLEEP TOO LONG
BUT NOW THE STREETS WILL SING OUR SONG.
THEIR TIME HAS COME, WE WON’T RETREAT
WE’LL TURN THE LIES TO HEAT.

IT WON’T BE SHOWN ON THE NEWS,
BUT IT’S WRITTEN IN BLOOD ON THE WALLS.
THE SKY IS CRACKING OPEN
THIS EMPIRE’S BOUND TO FALL.

SCREAM IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
WE RISE, WE BREAK THE CHAINS.
RAISE UP YOUR FISTS AND BANNERS
LET FIRE CLEANSE THE STAINS.
SHOUT IT FROM THE RUINS!
A BETTER DAWN MUST BURN.
TAKE BACK WHAT THEY HAVE STOLEN
MAKE THEM TWIST AND TURN!

ONE PEOPLE — BUT THEY SPLIT THE THREAD,
TURNED OUR HUNGER INTO DREAD.
KEPT US POOR, KEPT US COLD
WHILE THEIR BANQUET NIGHTS UNFOLD.
WITH EMPS IN SHAKING HANDS,
WE RISE — UNITED WHERE WE STAND.
NO MORE FEAR, NO MORE DIVIDE
THIS IS THE PEOPLE’S TIDE.

IT WON’T BE SHOWN ON THE NEWS,
BUT IT’S WRITTEN IN BLOOD ON THE WALLS.
THIS SILENCE SCREAMS REVOLUTION
AND SOON THE CURTAIN FALLS.

SCREAM IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
WE RISE, WE BREAK THE CHAINS.
RAISE UP YOUR FISTS AND BANNERS
LET FIRE CLEANSE THE STAINS.
SHOUT IT FROM THE RUINS!
A BETTER DAWN MUST BURN.
TAKE BACK WHAT THEY HAVE STOLEN
MAKE THEM TWIST AND TURN!

WE WANT A WORLD THAT’S FAIR AND FREE
NOT THIS GHOST OF LIBERTY.
WE’VE LIVED IN CAGES MADE OF FEAR,
BUT THE RECKONING IS NEAR.
LET THE WINDS OF CHANGE ARISE,
ASH AND SMOKE IN POISONED SKIES.
THE TIME HAS COME — WE STAND AS ONE
THE WAR FOR PEACE HAS JUST BEGUN.

RESTORE OUR STOLEN RIGHTS,
SHELTER, FOOD, AND FIRELIGHT.
THE 0.1% STILL FEED
WHILE OUR KIDS BLEED.
BUT THE BLACKENED SUN WILL RISE,
RETURN OUR KIDS!
BECAUSE TRUTH WILL TEAR THE LIES.
