Power in the blood 
Power in the blood

No time for spin-doctors' medicine
Corporation government selling me some cover-up
Weaponizing pesticides
Poison in my groceries
Nothing but another drug, a license they can buy and sell

I don't mind dying
Well I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
But when that call it comes I will say no no, no to war

No time for backhanded compliments
From television anchor men desperate for an incident
Real estate assassins exploiting our predicament
Everything depends upon it being in their interests

No I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
When that call it comes, I will say no no, no to war

There is power in the blood, justice in the soul
When that call it comes, I will say no no no to war
Power in the blood, justice in the soul
When that call it comes I will say no no no to war

There's military interest, GMO's in paradise
Bio-weapons high up on the call sheet
Young soldiers driving tanks
But old thieves they drive the banks
And you never see a uniform on Wall Street

There is power in the blood

I don't mind dying
I don't mind the dying
I don't mind dying
When that call it comes I will say no no, no to war
