The plutocracy that rules us
Is afraid of the American past, Were we to reclaim our heritage Their dominion would not last. The spirit of independence, The belief in equality, The love of human freedom That resides in you and me, They're all now nothing but obstacles Standing in their way, So we just hate the government Is what they like to say, And who's to contradict them, How can we make folks hear, When they've grabbed all the megaphones And filled us all with fear, A fear of one another, Fear between white and black, A fear of strong convictions, Fear of a terrorist attack?
Now that you know the purpose
