We Are the Many by Makana 1. We come here, gather ‘round the stage / The time has come for us to voice our rage Against the ones who trapped us in a cage / To steal from us the value of our wage 2. From underneath the vestiture of law / The lobbyists at Washington do gnaw At liberty; the bureaucrats guffaw / And until they are purged we won’t withdraw Refrain We’ll occupy the streets, we’ll occupy the courts / We’ll occupy the offices of you ‘Til you do / The bidding of the many, not the few 3. Our nation was built upon the right / Of every person to improve their plight The laws of this republic they rewrite / And now the few own everything in sight 4. They own it free of liability / They own, but they are not like you and me Their influence dictates legality / And until they are stopped we are not free Refrain 5. You enforce your monopolies with guns / While sacrificing our daughters and sons Well, certain things belong to everyone / You’re thievery has left the people none 6. So take heed of our notice to redress / We have little to lose we must confess Your empty words leave us unimpressed / A growing number join us in protest Refrain 7. You can’t divide us into sides / And, from our gaze you cannot hide Denial serves to amplify / And our allegiance you can’t buy 8. Our government is not for sale / The banks do not deserve a bail We won’t reward those who fail / we’ll not move ‘til we prevail Refrain Repeat Refrain We are the many, you are the few. https://youtube/watch?v=xq3BYw4xjxE
