lyrics

The gig is up, the fix is in
The books are cooked, and you know who wins
It's the ones who've been keeping score
They have it all and they still want more

They own the land, the own the laws
They got the weapons, they got the claws
They can't be stopped from their crusade
They just need you to be afraid

CLASS WARFARE
Boots are on the ground
CLASS WARFARE
You're under attack
CLASS WARFARE
Bombs are raining down, but they only call it
CLASS WARFARE
when you fight back

They try to kill you with the air you breathe
Cleaning up the mess, it just ain’t something they believe
They poison you with the food you eat
They won't think twice if it feeds their neverending need

CLASS WARFARE
Boots are on the ground
CLASS WARFARE
You're under attack
CLASS WARFARE
Bombs are raining down, but they only call it
CLASS WARFARE
when you fight back

You must draw blood, you must feel pain
You must kill to climb the human food chain
You destroy to hold your wealth
Until you die just like everybody else
You kill the young and you feel no shame
But I don't have to play your game
We don't need guns, we don't need knives
We just need to get organized
