Marcel Cartier - Right to Rebel lyrics

[Chorus] Rise up Raise hell Fists up Rebel It is right to rebel against the status quo You know this system as a whole it gotta go Rise up (rise up) Raise hell (raise hell) Fists up (fists up) Rebel (rebel) It is right to rebel against the po po The people gotta be more organised to win though [Verse 1] Every twenty eight hours a black man Is gunned down by a crooked police man But what is good cop? Is it only bad cops? Or is it some sort of system we need to drop? After all a black man is in the white house But that don't mean racism put its lights out Look at all the isolated incidents Ain't a case of bad apples, it's what they represent They the military arm of the state that represents the wealthy motherf**ers who control your fate Unless you take it in your hands, the ballot or the bullet The ballot didn't work so now it's time we pull it You want democracy we'll find it in a molotov We'll build a people's army just to take you ba*tards on We need a new society not just a president The flames in Ferguson were setting early presses yeah [Chorus] Rise up (rise up) Raise hell (raise hell) Fists up (fists up) Rebel (rebel) It is right to rebel against the status quo You know this system as a whole it gotta go Rise up (rise up) Raise hell (raise hell) Fists up (fists up) Rebel (rebel) It is right to rebel against the po po The people gotta be more organised to win though [Verse 2] Michael Brown, Eric Garner Who wants peace now? Barack Obama? It's a f**ing joke to appeal for karma If people knew the truth the legal route can't be called upon We want justice, without it can't be peace Uprisings justified in every city's streets The US should call themselves to bomb themselves if they want to stay consistent about their so called defense Democracy and freedom, nowhere to be seen When you loose your sight from teargas you realize you've been, on par with the struggle of oppressed of the earth By the people for what its worth I got a dream got a vision got a planet Transform power into ammunition into all our hands The people united all through ideology and finally and formally bring end to this tragedy [Chorus] Rise up (rise up) Raise hell (raise hell) Fists up (fists up) Rebel (rebel) It is right to rebel against the status quo You know this system as a whole it gotta go Rise up (rise up) Raise hell (raise hell) Fists up (fists up) Rebel (rebel) It is right to rebel against the po po The people gotta be more organised to win though
