Lyrics
To The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look how the ruts cling to my footsteps
The fatal invisible tool
By which we define (we fight!) for our approval
And fear our removal from the safety of fools
From the tidal forces of our positions
Not won (not one!) to take for granted
Are our rebel hymns in canted
To sing in the mines of the fortunate sons?
Brothers in spirit, sisters in rage,
Will we live out our lives in this concrete cage?
Another heartbeat lost, another police murder
Buried in the public eyes on the back page.
Heartbeat lost in a new world order
Hobbled and bound but still walking away
I pledge allegiance to the world
Nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
I pledge allegiance to the world
Searching for vision not invisibility
I pledge allegiance to the world
Searching for vision not invisibility
I pledge allegiance to the world
Until the last lock breaks none of us are free
None of us are free...
We fight to balance our minds
Petty powers pushing profits over our lifetimes
World leaders mortgaging our lives with words
I don't need to be reminded of whom you really serve.
Brothers in spirit, sisters in rage,
Will we live out our lives in this concrete cage?
Another heartbeat lost, another police murder
Buried in the public eyes on the back page.
{too many} heartbeats lost in the new world order
{while we're} standing alone with our backs to the maze
I pledge allegiance to the world
Nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
I pledge allegiance to the world
Until the last lock breaks none of us are free
I pledge allegiance to the world
Until the last lock breaks none of us are free
I pledge allegiance to the world
For nothing more, nothing less
In justice, in hunger united
Searching for vision united
In justice, in hunger united
Law and order {but} for whose order?
I pledge allegiance to the world
Nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
I pledge allegiance to the world
Until the last lock breaks none of us are free
I pledge allegiance to the world
Under no nation will we ever be
I pledge allegiance to the world
For nothing more, nothing less
Than my humanity, than my humanity, than my humanity (pledge allegiance!)
To our humanity, to our humanity, to our humanity (to the world!)
