First
God created light
And then the blue, blue skies
Then of course the land and the seas
He made the stars above
The fish and then the doves
The animals and ones like you and me

He took a rest and saw his craft
And saw it was his last draft
He quickly became bored with the
Peace He had made

He added fruit we couldn't touch
And curiosity because
Sometimes people need a little......
Nudge

But on the 8th Day....

Man created borders
And started taking orders
From people we ordained should rule us all

Put their boots on our necks
All so that they can protect
The nation that they made at the lord's call

They manifest a destiny
They promised that the Trinity
Voted for long ago in holy halls

Then they scorched and tore the earth
And anyone who at birth
Did not quite resemble them at all

Build it up to break it down, fight over our plated crown
While the real kings look down with a smile from Hell
Knowin that they got is fooled livin by their rules
While we cry "Revolution" to ourselves

Now we're wastin lumber
To block out anyone
That doesn't share our skin tone or
Our last name

And instead of buildin tables
And place for those less able
We build something to
keep them in their place

They say "Good fences make good neighbors,
But good neighbors share their spoils
But sharing teaches folks just to
laze about"

So before we build a wall
I would really like to know
What we're walling in and
Walling out?

Build it up to break it down, fight over our plated crown
While the real kings look down with a smile from Hell
Knowin that they got is fooled livin by their rules
While we cry "Revolution" for ourselves

This isn't something new you'll see
Designed by folks like you and me
It's written in the stars that the
Old Kings forged

Built and fueled by blood and sweat
That burns an eerie crimson red
A rosy shade that
We've come to adore

Separate us by our class
By our gods, by our grass
That's never quite as green as
Right next door

If we tear down walls we built
Instead of Kill or be Killed
We might find a world
Worth FIGHT FOR

Build it up to break it down, fight over our plated crown
While the real kings look down with a smile from Hell
Knowin that they got is fooled livin by their rules
While we cry "Revolution" for ourselves

Build it up to break it down, fight over our plated crown
While the real kings look down with a smile from Hell
Knowin that they got is fooled , there's no real threat to their rule
While we cry "Revolution" to ourselves

While we cry "Revolution" to ourselves

While we cry "REVOLUTION!!!"
