Refusal

Strike Anywhere

sister

I won't let you go

I won't let them take you

into the silence of a past divided

brother

keep teaching the power

we only move together

away from the past that made us fall apart



I refuse to run and I will die

before I kneel in this life



systems

of profits we punish

with love as our weapon

and unity

unity rebirth in fire



I refuse to run and I will die

before I kneel in this life



are we crucified

we defend our birthright

equality betrayed

and every hour a voice is lost

but every rage defies the cost

embrace the whole world as your kin

truth to truth and skin to skin

begin



searching for an end to the bullshit reactions

another way to separate us

and end to the bullshit of separation

another way to keep us from truth
