Take Direct Action! Lyrics by Plaedo

0

La-La-La-Listen up people
People of the planet
Take Direct Action
Activate Your Passion
Fantastic, That's it
Chant This, Anthem
Plaedo is the name
Make a change
Is the name of the game
That I want to play
If ya with me say, "Hey!"
I'm on my computer
With the Eyes of Zapruder
Looking through the minutia
Of Indra's Web on the internet
Is where I read
About the corruption, destruction
Suffering, so I started wondering
How can I help
All those struggling
So I'm coming true
With the Justice
The beauty, with the peace
When I hit the streets
An attitude of gratitude
I got a tattoo, it says Carpe Diem
Because I want Freedom
So I'm creeping, peeping, sneaking
Up on my fears
I'm taking off the mask
I'm lifting off the veil
I'm having a laugh
And give it a kiss
And in a flash
My fear becomes love
And it sounds like this!

Chorus:
Listen up People
People of the Planet
Take Direct Action
Activate Your Passion
Use your Soul Force
It is Love Everlasting

So a vital person, vitalizes
My advice is, find allies and
When in crises, then realize it's
Everyday actions, by everyday people
That's how change happens
So if they slashing
Our food stamps than
We grow our own plants and
If nobody got's cash
We give our gifts away for free
They lie on the news
We turn off the TV
And graffiti the truth
There's many things to do
With our jobs, with our laws
In our classrooms, to make the
Impossible feel possible
We gots to know it's logical so

Chorus

Because there's a war for your mind
And a war for your time
This war is designed
To steal away your prime
This war is disguised
To be the norm
But this war can be won
Through peace and love
So if the police come
With their riot gear
We hold up a mirror
We say I know you and you are like me
Take off that mask
It is better to laugh
Today is your birthday
I brought you some cake
I think your making a mistake
Working for the corporate state
Can't you see, that nobody got any money
For the bills they want to pay
Can't you relate
You can stand in the way
Or help make a change
A change within and a change to the system
In this world we live in
If we don't act today
We may see no tomorrow
But we don't need no sorrow
If we don't let this happen
So come on y'all
Take Direct Action!

Chorus

So we rise up
Like a phenix
No more waiting on Jesus
Placing faith in leaders
We place trust in ourselves
So your telling us a joke
If your telling us to vote
For a candidate
When unless your contributing
To their campaign
Your vote is useless
You wanna make a change
Then use this
Direct Action
Tree sits, sit in's
Boycotts, blockades
Whatever it takes
When we're protesting
We're even get arrested
Better respect existence
Or expect resistance
This is
Tribal Hop Raptivism
Dismantling the system
Through Passionate Living
Dancing and Kissing
Singing and bringing
That people power
And now we're surrounding
All of your towers
You better come down
Down to the earth
Put some change in our cup
Because if you don't come down
We're coming up!

Chorus
