One People - Marcus D

People call us naive, backwards petwater bottle rocket science

March with them picket signs made of pizza boxes

Oxytocin intoxins

Drum circle live from zuccotti park to the port of oakland

Where did they come from, comfort of their homes

Take it to the red zone, rubber bullet to the dome

Suckers spying the web like they used to tap phones

Hellfire missiles dropped by predator drones

700 billion a year for defense huh

More like offensive on the 99 percent that

Still shop at stores named 99cents

So I’ll chip in my two for the popular dissent

For the people

For the people

For the people

One people

This one’s for

For the people

For the people

For the people

One people

I Get off the couch to the parade to the general assembly

Springing up like bamboo shoots in monsoons

Fooled once, duped twice, bamboozled for strikes

It’stime for your conscience to put up a fight

Motherhuggers, real lovers know what it’s worth, yes

Price tags can’t have enough zeroes to purchase

Every little thing that you can bake in your pie

You can try to divide but impossible like pi

Occupy this speech, besieged

Land property seized improperly

You can break the monotony

Bored of living on a board of monopoly

This game of life is still odd to me

A dream is a lot less brighter than it ought to be

Poverty spread like a tumor on top of the

Average income pulling household economy

Taxed out the gate, gotta topple the authority

Truth almighty on this side of the barricade

Doesn’t matter which one us you interrogate

Wanna bet what changed since the watergate

Juliet told Romeo to serenade

For the people

For the people

For the people

One people

This song’s for

For the people

For the people

For the people

One people

So my power point being are we ever gonna have

Peace of mind, body, and soul

Not likely if remotely controlled by the psyche of the flag

Shipping off labors and disturbing our neighbors

Distributing rations of irrational behavior

Trapped in an orthodox, looking for a savior

He ain’t second coming when u guessing his name

Xavier onassis, minute hour day month year time elapses

Neuron fire lapses

The war intensifies overseas white lies

Life of a butterfly, better yet a sacrifice lamb burger

Lettuce and tomato on top with the curly fries

Hot sauce burn your upper lip

Truth makes you bite your tongue

Here’s a serum take a sip

Real activists show more heart than a click of a hactivist

Who cares about evidence of relevance

Self-governance or face detriment

Let freedom ring Tahrir to Tiananmen

So would you keep mum when they hush

Or would you paint your own picture with a brush

So would you keep dumb when they crush

When your button is pushed

By the people

By the people

By the people

One people

This one’s for

For the people

For the people

For the people

For the people

One people
