Lyrics

[00:08.31] We live in a fabled world of dreaming boys and wide-eyed girls,
[00:14.98] where precious few get a fair start.
[00:17.50] These times can break you,
[00:20.75] these times can leave you torn apart.
[00:34.77] The story starts with genocide, slavery those terrorized.
[00:40.51] Families, cultures torn apart - this ugly truth only the start.
[00:45.81] And it's a white washed pact, the founding act, revolution or contract?
[00:51.69] To subjugate, to torture, to abuse for the few.
[00:57.43] We live in a fabled world of terror day and night all hidden in plain sight.
[01:08.56] We live in a fabled world where the poor and the weak are pawns for profit's sake.
[01:31.52] Lock up, mass incarcerate the new Jim Crow, the new slave trade.
[01:36.64] If Dr King were here today, he'd fight for much more than a dream.
[01:42.23] And you should go sign up, join the fight - the rich sleep while you kill tonight.
[01:48.30] Love thy enemy as yourself - as you carpet bomb him to hell.
[01:53.71] We live in a fabled world of terror day and night all hidden in plain sight.
[02:04.95] We live in a fabled world where the poor and the weak are pawns for profit's sake.
[02:15.64] We live in a fabled world, a corprocratic killing field,
[02:21.82] where fascist profits are a lock, these times can break you,
[02:27.81] these times can leave you torn apart.
[02:36.54] We live in a fabled world of terror day and night all hidden in plain sight.
[02:47.80] We live in a fabled world where the poor and the weak are pawns for profit's sake.
[02:58.99] We live in a fabled world, we live in a fabled world.
[03:09.95] These times can break you,
[03:12.71] these times can leave you - torn apart!
