lyrics
Ruined from above [1]
Our beliefs of social justice [2]
Ruined by the riches
There's a civil warfare [3]
Waged by a centile [4]
Governments help them
Impoverish their people [5]
A desired domination [6]
By a few corporations [7]
It’s easier
To imagine
An end to the world
Than an end to capitalism [8]
We're driven by ideas of power
From dead founding fathers
Weight of them taken on us
Through institutions [9]
Ruined from above [1]
Always the same pay for all [10]
We’re trapped in this false equality [11]
A system that reproduces itself
In a fight against dominateds [12]
It’s easier
To imagine
An end to the world
Than an end to capitalism [8]
The 99 uprise [13]
A fight against the dominants
The 99 uprise [13]
The end of capitalism
