Lyrics

Freedom gone, it was all planned
Thousands knew across the land
They drew a line into the sand
Twisted creeping, sleight of hand

I am all the people
You are all the people
They're not for the people
Rise up for the people

I am all the people
You are all the people
They're not for the people
Rise up for the people

Once its done and they'll be back
Walk the line into the black
Avoid the signs that make you crack
Heads down quick avoid the flack

Those that run with all the snakes
Earthquake comes to cleanse and shake
Like a man yet to awake
For his sins and worst mistakes

I am all the people
You are all the people
They're not for the people
Rise up for the people

I am all the people
You are all the people
They're not for the people
Rise up for the people
