We Are the Many, by Makana (recording here)
Ye come here, gather 'round the stage The time has come for us to voice our rage Against the ones who've trapped us in a cage To steal from us the value of our wage 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 CHORUS: We'll occupy the streets We'll occupy the courts We'll occupy the offices of you Till you do The bidding of the many, not the few Our nation was built upon the right Of every person to improve their plight But laws of this Republic they rewrite And now a few own everything in sight 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 CHO You enforce your monopolies with guns While sacrificing our daughters and sons But certain things belong to everyone Your thievery has left the people none So take heed of our notice to redress We have little to lose, we must confess Your empty words do leave us unimpressed A growing number join us in protest CHO 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 Our government is not for sale The banks do not deserve a bail We will not reward those who fail We will not move till we prevail CHO CHO We are the many You are the few
