YONDER STANDS THE SINNER
Oh, there may be times
When you wish you wasn't born
And you wake one morning
Just to find your courage gone
But just know that feelin'
Only lasts a little while
You just stick with us
And we'll show you how to smile!
Ease on down, ease on down the road
Come on ease on down, ease on down the road
Eese on down, ease on down the road
Don't you carry nothing
That might be a load
Come on ease on down, ease on down the road
Eese on down, ease on down the road
A Peoples History Of The Wold
At some turning point in history,
some fuckface recognized that knowledge tends to democratize cultures and societies
so the only thing to do was monopolize and confine it to priests,
clerics and elites the rest resigned to serve,
cuz if the rabble heard the truth they'd organize against the power,
privilege and wealth hoarded by the few- for no one else.
And did it occur to you that it's almost exactly the same today?
And so if our schools won't teach us,
we'll have to teach ourselves to analyze and understand the systems of thought-control.
And share it with each other,
never sayed by brass rings or the threat of penalty.
I'll promise you- you promise me-
not to sell each other out to murderers, to thieves...
who've manufactured our delusion that you and me participate meaningfully
in the process of running our own lives.
Yeah, you can vote however the fuck you want,
but power still calls all the shots.
And believe it or not, even if (real) democracy broke loose,
power could/would just "make the economy scream" until we vote responsibly
