A Call to Arms - For Today

Let desperation have a voice you can’t ignore

Now, listen closely to the voices of the poor

«If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor

He too will cry out and not be answered.»

Dying in the streets, they are fighting to see peace

This is a call to arms against the greed of our nation

This is a call to arms, we are the seed of salvation

Call, call to arms;

preying on the helpless for far too long

Call to arms;

it’s time to cross the lines we’ve drawn

Too afraid to be made to suffer, we stay safe in our luxury

While broken people kill each other

Desperate men do desperate things

You want to stop the violence?

Put an end to poverty!

You’ll never keep them silent

Desperate men do desperate things

Greed is a deadly thing, still, in our shame, we hide

Greed is a deadly thing, but justice won’t be denied

Dying in the streets, they are fighting to see peace

This is a call to arms against the greed of our nation

This is a call to arms, we are the seed of salvation

Call, call to arms;

preying on the helpless for far too long

Call to arms;

it’s time to cross the lines we’ve drawn

Too afraid to be made to suffer, we stay safe in our luxury

While broken people kill each other

Desperate men do desperate things

They may be forgotten, but they are still not gone

If we can meet their needs, we can find the peace

That we’ve been chasing all along

They may be forgotten, but they are still not gone

If we can meet their needs, we can find the peace

That we’ve been chasing all along
