lyrics

Verse 1:
Risen a new Caesar
From the bitch-ass crowd pleasers
Giving safety to the dumb
In exchange for our freedom
Boxing up here all the wise
Men who's anger's on the rise
I'm fed up, I've had my fill
Time to rise up, time to kill

Bridge:
"Et tu Brute", they be screaming in the air
I won't relent from this assault, I do not care
I will make them bleed with a guillotine chop
I will not surrender, I will not stop

Chorus:
Ides of March are coming! (x4)

Verse 2:
So this is the fate
Of the fools of the state
Of the NPC cliche
Who just bleet and obey
Haven't got a lumen
'Cause they aren't even human
Freedom taken, they applaud
Government's their holy god

Bridge

Chorus

Verse 3:
The massive brainwashing has been effective
'Cause Americans support a terrorist collective
The government operates through violence and fear
And made us more subservient year after year
When are we gonna stand up, when are we gonna fight back?
Stand up for your rights and get on the attack
I will not bow to you, I will not take a knee
I won't live as a slave, I would rather die free

Bridge

Chorus

I knew Joe Mayeur, the guitarist on this album. It's also a great album if you're into reggae from the Dairy State. Buskers
