Sun Rise Above - The Human Cost Lyrics
As I went rolling down that ribbon of highwayThis land is my land isn't what I'd saySigns that I'm passing blast no trespassingCash rules everything, which means I'm just a targetProfit, the god that's king on the marketBring on the rocket launchers that knock us all unconsciousThirty thousand children die and never hearWho don't have to, but still get killed that's why I ask youHow many mothers cried today?How many looked up at the sky and prayed to try and find a way?Yea, how many children died today?How many workers gave their lives away so you could live it up?Huh? How many mothers cried today?How many looked up at the sky and prayed to try and find a way?Yea, how many children died today?How many workers gave their lives away so you could live it up?Nature is the mother, labor is the fatherCapitalism is a rapist that's straight raking it all inThey're balling, the top five percent has got a lot of rentWhile I ain't got a single red cent, so I'm dead bentLiquor in my liver is like religion in my brainHelping me maintain 'cause I can't withstand the painDrain, my blood like vampires my man firedFor being minutes late, got him in a mental stateMan, I hate the way they got it set up, gotta get awayBut not a vacay, revolution is my revelationNever devastation, patient, mind on the hurtMine in the dirt where my great grandpa died at his workHow many mothers cried today?How many looked up at the sky and prayed to try and find a way?Yea, how many children died today?How many workers gave their lives away so you could live it up?Huh? How many mothers cried today?How many looked up at the sky and prayed to try and find a way?Yea, how many children died today?How many workers gave their lives away so you could live it up?
