RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: RESISTANCE
Opposition Rises
The opposition rises
Like the Phoenix from the ashes
The whole world is in crisis
As the global system crashes
We are waiting for a change
Not a surface decoration
For the people are estranged
From this war seeking nation
Our money seems to shrink
Every time we drive our cars
How long before we sink?
Just how far is too far?
They take away our friends
They’ll shoot us if we resist
On their mercy we depend
We are governed by the fist
Now they’ve taken it abroad
This grand brutality of force
Netanyahu playing God
Now we’re fighting Israel’s wars
Turn around and make it stop
This war has got to end
We are not the global cop
Let the wounds begin to mend
