Ascend - Sweatshop Union

We are passing into a great change of species

And no matter how loudly the old authorities

may proclaim that this is not so, it is going to happen

Our moment of time, when population reaches it’s limit

and the world as we know it ends, is not about death at all

It is about ascending into a new kind of life

They only see to the sky

Our dreams and our lives

Our means to survive

But not between our eyes

We gotta free our minds and re-design them

Seek and find the trees to climb high and

Read the signs between the lines

Defeat the lies discreetly hiding deep inside them

Sheep unite and beat the tyrant

Leave the island but keep smiling (smiling)

'Cause why try to fit in To this life that has been

Pre-planned to keep man in a cycle of sin

The fight could have been won

But we sit stunned

As we get drunk and forget once we were tricked

And now they can complete their goal

'Cause we’re convinced that dung heaps are gold

People sold to keep our souls dug in Deeper holes than we could know we’re stuck in

«Now something is wrong with that… don’t you think?»

Life can be a sequence of precluded opportunities

just like d?

j?

vu that never ends

It seems our position as spirit beings

on this physical journey’s to make our moves and then

Life can be a sequence of precluded opportunities

just like d?

j?

vu that never ends

It seems our position as spirit beings

on this physical journey’s to make our moves and then ascend

I know sometimes it seems like it’s some kind of dream, right?

Some try to scream and reach the sunshining beams

But the path is paved with choices, and the voices tell you lies

But it’s your choice, your life, don’t wait for hell to rise

It won’t be televised in any case

On any stations anyways

Many wait for many saviors

Many say that any day

The penny’s they attempt to save will buy them plenty acres

And the petty labor’s every day’s work’s fruit can then be savored

Believe what you choose to but I refuse to surrender

To the people that rule you and their ruthless agendas

Spent a day away with me Don’t slave this week or play the game

End the pain, I’ll make you see

The sacred tree and break the chains

Leave your alleys and streets, walk the valleys and peaks with me This is all ours if you and I can just leave it be Freedom is as easy as believing that we’re one

Breathing it in deeply and the healing has begun

Until we change our ways

There’s no fucking way they’ll change their ways

Manipulate our brains with the airwaves

Our kids will face the same shit when they’re slaves

What gets me is they claim that it’s fair play

But label us insane if we dare say

Anything that unlocks the staircase

So they can keep us locked in a scared state

Yeah, but until I change my ways

There’s no fucking way you’ll change your ways

So we’ll keep celebrating Earth Day

Even though it’s clear it’s merely wordplay

What gets me is I know that they can cure AIDS

'Cause they control the healthcare and the birthrate

Then indoctrinate us 'til we serve hate

And incarcerate us in this birdcage

«And what frightens me is that… people are simply letting it happen»
