You tread crush and trample down
Into the ground
My brothers and my sisters
You shove kick and you push aside
Into the mire
All those who stand against you
But soon oppressor your day will come
Retribution
Will fall down upon you
For every day action
There's an equal and opposite reaction
Retribution it will come one day
Retribution you will have to pay
When the Father come to judge mankind again
You tread crush and trample down
Into the ground
My brothers and my sisters
You shove kick and you push aside
Into the mire
All those who stand against you
But soon oppressor your day will come
Retribution
Will fall down upon you
For every every action
There's an equal and opposite reaction
Every day the devil help the thief
So him satisiy with ole leaf
Him never want to give the page a turn
So how will he ever ever learn
