Dawnshine

 

Dawnshine

 

It’s been a long time in this dark people,

Dark with the lies that we’ve been fed.

Too many real freedoms taken,

Too much innocent blood shed.

Lies propagated for rich to continue,

To slaughter the sheep they have led.

But all nights have their endings,

And I can see the light clearly ahead.

 

We’ve been working hard,  

But there’s so much left to do.

Time to raise up the downtrodden,

It’s for us to break through!

The one who doesn’t need it,

Wants to take it all from you.

But the dawn is breaking,

And it’s breaking blue.

 

Now the nighted creatures

Will tell you the dark is really light,

To keep us all in the gloom,

They revel in this plunder and blight.

They divert our attention with circuses,

To keep the uneducated unaware of their plight,

But dawn approaches implacably,

And the end of darkness is in our sight.

 

We’ve been working hard,  

But there’s so much left to do.

Time to raise up the downtrodden,

It’s for us to break through!

The one who doesn’t need it,

Wants to take it all from you.

But the dawn is breaking,

And it’s breaking blue.
