Unring the Bell
Where is your freedom
Is it buried in the Earth
Tell me, is it growing
Or is it losing its worth
And where were all your people
When they burned your building down
Too busy fighting their own war in their own town
Un-ring the bell, it's time, it's time
Take back what we had, it's yours and mine
Shadows of evil
Cast like giants on the wall
Do you even know
How many people you appall
And where were all those people
On whose backs you climb
Too busy saving their own skin, and their own kind
Un-ring the bell, it's time, it's time
Take back what we had, it's yours and mine
New Jim Crow, different shades of brown
Blood spills red on ancient hallowed ground
Flying machines send missiles to the moon
While Babylon is burning in the pale afternoon
Un-ring the bell, it's time, it's time
Take back what we had, it's yours and mine
Fake liberty is just another form of hate
Un-ring the bell before it's too late
Too late
Too late
Is it buried in the Earth
Tell me, is it growing
Or is it losing its worth
And where were all your people
When they burned your building down
Too busy fighting their own war in their own town
Un-ring the bell, it's time, it's time
Take back what we had, it's yours and mine
Shadows of evil
Cast like giants on the wall
Do you even know
How many people you appall
And where were all those people
On whose backs you climb
Too busy saving their own skin, and their own kind
Un-ring the bell, it's time, it's time
Take back what we had, it's yours and mine
New Jim Crow, different shades of brown
Blood spills red on ancient hallowed ground
Flying machines send missiles to the moon
While Babylon is burning in the pale afternoon
Un-ring the bell, it's time, it's time
Take back what we had, it's yours and mine
Fake liberty is just another form of hate
Un-ring the bell before it's too late
Too late
Too late
