Lyrics for Rise

A life of work is a life of crime You pay your taxes, you serve your time All that money, where does it go? Schools, prisons, hospitals, roads Government funding of military science Genetically engineered ultraviolent DNA, killer genes to program microchips, marines See stealth bombers and tomahawks on CNN, pay-per-view war Rise, rise Rise, rise Rise, rise Rise, rise Hey, wage slave, where's your profit share? They got you down, they're gonna keep you there Freeze your mind, metamorphose Cocaine karma in the heroin zone Multinational life is cheap Soldiers, workers, maggots meat Get on up, protest riot Are you collateral damage or a legitimate target? Rise, rise Rise, rise Rise, rise Rise, rise Sweet 16 dehumanized, deaths head factory suicide Sweet 16 dehumanized, deaths head factory suicide Sweet 16 dehumanized, deaths head factory suicide Sweet 16 dehumanized, deaths head factory suicide Rise, rise Rise, rise Rise, rise Rise, rise
