I see peace in the streets in the city I live in
Yet the police seem to seek something a little bit different
They say crime doesn't pay, yet the police built an army
How do you serve in protect with only weapons that harm me?
When they build a prison, they know that they have to fill it
Arresting people for profit, designed to keep people killing
Why do taxpayers pay for the police to learn lessons
We pay millions for settlements while they keep collecting
If we can bomb other countries we can house our own people
If we can bail out the markets we can feed the town's people
And every single job deserves a living wage
You can't deny that fact while you're still getting paid
And something's gotta, something's gotta give
Cuz the state of the world, the fate of the world, really depends on this
And something's gotta, somethings gotta give,
Cuz the state of the world, the fate of the world, shouldn't end like this
You'd think something like the planet dying would bring us together
But now people are denying things as simple as weather
We're so stuck in our ways we can't even imagine
We put personal freedom ahead of human compassion
In World War II we had victory gardens
A whole collective war effort even though it was hard
People could see the big picture, they could even comprehend
They could get by with a little less to help the war end.
But now I can't imagine everyone agreeing to do what is right
If it means that they would have to make a little little sacrifice
And something's gotta, something's gotta give
Cuz the state of the world, the fate of the world, really depends on this
And something's gotta, something's gotta give
Cuz the state of the world, the fate of the world, shouldn't end like this
Money's just a social construct, because we want stuff, it's never enough
Money's just a social construct, because we want stuff, it's never enough
Money's just a social construct, because we want stuff, it's never enough
Money's just a social construct, so we can flaunt stuff it's never enough
When are we all going to wake up?
When are we all going to wake up?
When are we all going to wake up?
