The Infamous Left

Rise
 Rise up
 Damned of the earth
 Damned of the earth
 Rise up, damned of the earth
 Scorned and tattered, no self worth
 The tenet died an academic death
 A generation from the blood and the sweat
 Rise up, put your papers down
 Hear the boots march right outside
 You theorize safe in your seat
 But the struggle really never left the streets
 So clever clever with its opinions
 Do you remember how we used to fight
 It wants tenure not opposition
 It has the watches, it has the time
 It has the watches, it has the time
 It has the watches, it has the time
 It's time to strike
 Rise up, damned of the earth
 Keep the promise of a brand new birth
 For everyone that fought before
 For every song sung about this war
 Rise up, all you wretched souls
 We want it all and deserve it all
 Rise up, make the powers pay
 For every wound that bled the way
 You're clever clever but it's still in you
 And I remember how we used to fight
 Fuck a defeatist disposition
 We have the watches, we have the time
 We have the watches, we have the time
 We have the watches, we have the time
 And we need to strike
 What's left, what's left
 What's left, what's left for us
 Left of the promise that we once made
 What's left, what's left
 What's left, what's left for us
 That could chase the vultures away
 What's left, what's left
 What's left, what's left for us
 Left of the promise that we once made
 What's left, what's left
 What's left, what's left for us
 That could chase the vultures away
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
 Rise up right now
