When you look back on our history,
All you see are war and misery,
Caused by humanity,
Controlled in the hierarchy

But I don't agree, we're not born to be
Evil, corrupt, inclined for tyranny
Instead I, would like to claim
That we're changed by

The powergame that they play
Oppressing masses, preserving classes
Institutions to confine, revolutionist in line
Yeah, make the people blind

When you look back on our history,
All you see are cults and mystery
Constitutionalized hypocrisy
To silence demands for

Democracy that they fear
So they're oppressing masses, preserving classes
Institutions to confine, revolutionist in line
Take a look around, take a good look around

Can't you hear what I'm trying to say?
It's time to choose a different way
No longer slave or passively be
The perfect part in their machinery
No, no longer, longer, baby
