I’d like to sing a sad song
That deals with cheerless fates
Of beings who once were strong
Now served on silver plates
I’d like to sing for creatures
Who get no chance to speak
Though they could be our teachers
They’re preyed without critique

Get up, fight for respect
The world can’t change without you
Wake up and start to reflect
revolution’s overdue

Can you imagine, my dear
Men built machines to kill
Within en empire of fear
For profit blood they spill
You can’t imagine, mother
Their world is so obscure
They slay our beloved brothers
Force grief upon the poor

Get up, fight for respect
The world can’t change without you
Wake up and start to reflect
revolution’s overdue

I call for revolutions
That shall spread harmony
Protest against delusion
Remind of dignity
It means no effort of will
For us to protect life
Since there is no need to kill
In order to survive

Get up, fight for respect
The world can’t change without you
Wake up and start to reflect
revolution’s overdue
