St Denis and Sherbrooke is a trendy bar strip
but now that hill reminds me of a baton tip
Drinkin 40s behind Chaos I'll never be at ease
riot cops on my mind, so I stay on my feet
Montreal is the city where I live,
Never called any other place my home,
The view from the hill, the lights in the night
It'll never look the same, not since the strike
Construction cones are a common sight but
they take on new meaning when they're set alight
The buildings of the major banks stand big and tall
but they're less intimidating if you've seen those windows fall
Bruised ribs and insane with rage,
tear gas on my breath and I'm runnin away
can't shake these flashbacks that chase me across town
those few times we owned the streets and tore their icons down

Fukushima

The life we choose to live may be killing us and there's fire in the water - no chance to escape it
Nuclear waste is raining down on all your children and there isn't any stopping it that's what you get for living in a system based on profit
Stuck in a wasteland but this wasteland is your very home
caught in a wasteland and that wasteland is your very own
We wanted all this power now the blood is on our hands we made the earth pay the price of our demands
I don't even know what the fuck a millisievert is I feel kept in the dark and all I hear is Fukushima
Stuck in a wasteland but this wasteland is your very home
caught in a wasteland and that wasteland is your very own

Get in, Get out! don't let it drag you down
Rise up Act out never let it drag you down
Take what you want and hit the ground running
got a deamon at your back and he's ready he's coming,
slip up and he'll leave you with nothing,
now you're stuck here doing basically nothing!
Can't get this shit off your mind, its not like you
911 call from the back of your mind, but its dead on the line!
Get in, Get out! don't let it drag you down
Rise up Act out never let it drag you down
In retrospect I'm a product of my environment,
do what they tell me yeah I do what they tell me!
They may buy hours out of each of our days,
but we only listen for the hours we are paid.
If we misbehave you can rattle on our cage,
but outside these walls well be a menace 'till the grave

Plastic Island
00:50
|
|||
Empty bottles to the floor
we use our share then use some more,
throw our plastic to the sea and
make a new island home for me
I want to live on plastic island
There's lots of new plastic for the fish to eat
and the bottle caps decorate the beach
on this plastic island made of trash
I've found my new perfect home at last!
I want to live on plastic island

The Valley

Tell me now who holds the answer when a thirteen year old boy dies of cancer
from his tiny lungs breathing chemical air, anyone will tell you its not fucking fair
oil companies get fatter and fatter while they fill up our lakes with petroleum waste matter but we asked for this so we could drive our cars so take some fucking blame because the fault is ours.
In Aamjiwnaang they're payin for our sins,
their children fly kites in chemical winds
In Aamjiwnaang they're paying for it....
Pay attention 'cause they need it badly
"No more chemicals in the valley"
If you listen you can hear them rally
"No more chemicals in the valley"
Vanessa Grey has something to say - but who's listening?
The government says everything's OK - but fuck that system
Pay attention 'cause they need it badly
"No more chemicals in the valley"
If you listen you can hear them rally
"No more chemicals in the valley"
In Aamjiwnaang they're payin for our sins,
their children fly kites in chemical winds
In Aamjiwnaang they're paying for it

Head Above Water
01:14
|

Nobody ever wins the war its money and power versus the poor
Bigger all guns will always be found
nobody can ever truly own the ground
so many people fighting to be free
I can feel myself slipping into apathy,
Wanna drown out the truth but its everywhere,
gotta keep my head above water gotta stay aware
Why is more attention paid
to celebrities waving their egos in your face
than crimes against humanity
and a deteriorating human race
We never learn from history
we're taught manufactured capitalist theories,
I feel the imminent decline of freedom
and we must fight to keep our futures from
coming undone.
Wanna drown out the truth but its everywhere,
gotta keep my head above water gotta stay aware

Le goût d'une Matraque

Sa sert a rien de rester assis a terre quand les austi'd flics ont toujours le feu vert, y font ce qu'ils veulent et y ont plain d'practique alors vos fucking geules avec on reste pacifique. C'est vraiment dommage ils avancent 'clac clac clac' et la les pacifists comprennent le gout d'une matraque - des fois sa prend plus que des mots pour apprendre pourquoi hair le drapeau
Il faut que le jour arrive ou il aurons peur de nous, nous allons prendre la rue avec un seul coup. unis, munis, pres pour quoi que se sois, on se revoit aux barricades, continuons le combat! [x2]
La bourgeoisie connais qu'une language, c'est greve, blockage pi sabotage
