to the world lyrics

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 for the fortunate sons?

So 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.
Heartbeats 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 law breaks none of us are free...

unti the last law breaks none of us are free.

we fight to balance our minds,
Petty powers pushing profits over our lifetimes,
World leaders mortaging 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 or lives in this concrete cage?
Another hearbeat 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
searching for vision not invisibility
I pledge allegiance to the world
until the last law breaks none of us are free

I pledge allegiance to the world
searching for vision not invisibility
I pledge allegiance to the world
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 law 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
nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
pledge allegiance
to our humanity to our humanity to our humanity
TO THE WORLD
