Right to Rebel Lyrics by Marcel Cartier

2014

[Chorus]
Rise up
Raise hell
Fists up
Rebel
It is right to rebel against the status quo
You know this system as a whole it gotta go
Rise up (rise up)
Raise hell (raise hell)
Fists up (fists up)
Rebel (rebel)
It is right to rebel against the po po
The people gotta be more organised to win though
[Verse 1]
Every twenty eight hours a black man
Is gunned down by a crooked police man
But what is good cop? Is it only bad cops?
Or is it some sort of system we need to drop?
After all a black man is in the white house
But that don't mean racism put its lights out
Look at all the isolated incidents
Ain't a case of bad apples, it's what they represent
They the military arm of the state that represents the wealthy motherfuckers who control your fate
Unless you take it in your hands, the ballot or the bullet
The ballot didn't work so now it's time we pull it
You want democracy we'll find it in a molotov
We'll build a people's army just to take you bastards on
We need a new society not just a president
The flames in Ferguson were setting early presses yeah
[Chorus]
Rise up (rise up)
Raise hell (raise hell)
Fists up (fists up)
Rebel (rebel)
It is right to rebel against the status quo
You know this system as a whole it gotta go
Rise up (rise up)
Raise hell (raise hell)
Fists up (fists up)
Rebel (rebel)
It is right to rebel against the po po
The people gotta be more organised to win though
[Verse 2]
Michael Brown, Eric Garner
Who wants peace now?
Barack Obama?
It's a fucking joke to appeal for karma
If people knew the truth the legal route can't be called upon
We want justice, without it can't be peace
Uprisings justified in every city's streets
The US should call themselves to bomb themselves if they want to stay consistent about their so called defense
Democracy and freedom, nowhere to be seen
When you loose your sight from teargas you realize you've been, on par with the struggle of oppressed of the earth
By the people for what its worth
I got a dream got a vision got a planet
Transform power into ammunition into all our hands
The people united all through ideology and finally and formally bring end to this tragedy
[Chorus]
Rise up (rise up)
Raise hell (raise hell)
Fists up (fists up)
Rebel (rebel)
It is right to rebel against the status quo
You know this system as a whole it gotta go
Rise up (rise up)
Raise hell (raise hell)
Fists up (fists up)
Rebel (rebel)
It is right to rebel against the po po
The people gotta be more organised to win though
