Ryan Harvey - What Better Time To Rise Than Now? lyrics

What better time to rise than now The war is still ragin there's no talk of pullin out There's 10 thousand dead civilians And that's just from the bombings And when you mix that with the sanctions Then the numbers get alarming But no one seems to hear it Conquering has always been their intention, this is clear sh**, they've overthrown the governments of Almost every country south of here Panama, Nicaragua, Cuba, Chile, Guatemala The Dominican Republic, Honduras, Argentina Not to mention Haiti And if they didn't overthrow them Then the world bank surely did With the trojan horse of debt relief For the poison of the pen Or with helicopters and tanks What better time to rise than now The factories are closing and the schools are shutting down Both canidates for president are full of sh** and not hesitant To just admit they're paupers for the corporate men in government The pentagon, the CIA, the CEOs all find away To make their wealth and keep it While poverty leaks through ghetto streets It's like the papers just delete Or people just don't read it What better time to rise than now And instead of asking questions Let's just try to find out how Cause if they're so brave and they're so mighty Why were they so afraid of that protest in Miami They spent 20 million dollars just to keep it all contained So the public wouldn't hear about this thing they call free trade They built a fence around the meetings cause the CEOs are scared And they were receiving federal funding so the cops could be prepared But what are they? and who's providing them this right They put shackles on the ma**es and therein lies their might Their power is protected by the silence we convey As we work like little robots on their projects everyday We produce the cuffs that cuff us with the very same hands But if we stop that production then we stop their plans It can be that easy
