Now there are those standing out in the streets

Trying to address the world crumbling beneath their feet

The naysayers call it a juvenile approach

Far set in their way to demand a better world

Though idea struck the youth in bolts

Can peaceful protest even be called revolt?

If it isn't evident they deserve our applause

One humanity, peace, co-operation is their cause

The brave asking for a better world with out a single bomb

Lets demand equality and an end to war, let the world be calm.

While an officer chants to "serve and protect"

As he blatantly imposes his will on those the country neglects

Let's not forget those who came before

The likes Of Martin Luther King, Ghandi & more

All of which would support your civil rights

As we continue to explore

What's wrong with saving our world from corporate greed

While putting priorities first?

Satisfying the impoverished, starving thirst

Or continue to drain our world in another monopoly burst by burst.
