B. Dolan - Which Side Are You On ? lyrics

[Verse 1] Who let the torch pa**ed fall in the tall gra**? Fire alarm wire's disarmed, what do you call that? Call it predictable political cliche So when the movie ends, the revolution's dead. Replay The sequence of events that led to these deep divisions; I've realized that all the wrong people are in prison The children wanna know if I believe in the Reptilians! I tell em ‘I don't know' but on the TV I see lizards When action was in fashion you were such an easy mimic! Bumpersticker quote lifting, crib note statistics Grasp for the straw man, born again cynics Fair-weather firebrand; spark my suspicion We knew you were the type to take the fight like a gimmick And rock the t-shirt when your sweat wasn't in it The clock is still ticking for the victim of the future You're waiting til' they look like you to ever choose but– [Chorus] Which Side Are You On? Which Side Are You On? (Damn) Which Side Are You On? (Ask the Industry.) Which Side Are You On? (Ask an Emcee.) [Verse 2] Who wrote the greatest lines of our generation But couldn't get from under their own small-minded hate trip ? The same rappers say they're trooping the frontlines And casually use the word ‘f*ggot' as a punchline That's not a man, that's not a tough guy That is a s**er and a fraud to the culture! Hip Hop is folk music grown from the struggle and Half these fools could put the mic down and run as a Republican f** ‘em then; they learn from their own wrong h*mophobes don't go to my shows, we too strong! And if you're in the front row, hara**ing girls during a song I will reach and ask you exactly– [Chorus] Which Side Are You On? (You ain't gotta like it) Which Side Are You On? [Verse 3] I'm on the side of poor people getting organized; I'm on the side of Choice where it is in short supply; I'm on the side of those the system doesn't authorize; L-G-B-T We are on the side of Pride, Justice and Equality Egypt to Wisconsin when they march against the Policy; If you bringing down a King I'm on your side probably Kids'll give me sh** for this it really doesn't bother me They were not around when we were wrestling with poverty So I follow none and ask no-one to follow me Use your own mind, use your heart and your anger Check yourself because Apathy is a cancer And let your action be the answer Chorus Which Side Are You On? (Ask your government) Which Side Are You On? (Ask your media) Which Side Are You On? (Ask yourself) Which Side Are You On? Sample: Don't scab for the bosses Don't listen to their lies Us poor folks haven't got a chance Unless we organize
