Remain Contemptuous
Where are the fires in our streets?
Are there no fires in our hearts?
Around us the tinders lay scattered
But where is the spark?
You put the pen to the paper
Heard it was stronger than the blade
You brought the power to the people
The people they tired and walked away
Results never came
You turned their bones & bricks to dust
The atmosphere concussed
You lost your mind
You lost their trust
And all you made was dust
Results never came
Still what's to be done when powers that be
Must be brought to their knees?
Can warrants be found to justify means such as these?
Burn it all away
Or turn and walk away
Results stay the same
Don't turn their bones or bricks to dust
Remain contemptuous
We want your mind
We need your trust
With the sum of us
The tide can be changed
Are there no fires in our hearts?
Around us the tinders lay scattered
But where is the spark?
You put the pen to the paper
Heard it was stronger than the blade
You brought the power to the people
The people they tired and walked away
Results never came
You turned their bones & bricks to dust
The atmosphere concussed
You lost your mind
You lost their trust
And all you made was dust
Results never came
Still what's to be done when powers that be
Must be brought to their knees?
Can warrants be found to justify means such as these?
Burn it all away
Or turn and walk away
Results stay the same
Don't turn their bones or bricks to dust
Remain contemptuous
We want your mind
We need your trust
With the sum of us
The tide can be changed
