You're Fired Lyrics - Strike Anywhere

In these days our crimes are paid 

by our wasted sweat on the kiling maze 

with freedom stains upon your hands 

what do you do for a living ? 

and how does it feel 

to watch the bosses rise 

while people fall 

patriots to comfort delusional 

another time, in another place 

for better life than this rat race 

Our labor's lost 

too many lifetimes wasting 

how many words did it take 

and when was the first time 

it stuck your heart with fear 

was it worth it to salute the culture 

that takes the life out of us 

to oil their weapons 

rise or rust 

our labor's lost 

Release us now 

before we forget what we are 

lift up our souls in union 

Inside us there's a nation 

hidebound and unaware 

A people's insurrection 

of the soul to kill despair 

release us now from the distance 

A promise that takes our power 

A people together in this 

the burning hour
