lyrics
On taking the streets, my heart is set again
I’m one with political MCs
I want to march on an overturned Capital
I’m walking towards a permanent and organised revolution
Fighting capital, the Daily Mail (TF1) and Murdoch (Claire Chazal)
Through boycott and a general strike
This ideology doesn’t seem ‘pragmatic’
For Kautskyite renegades or the Communist party
You’ll learn this whether you want to or not
The most dangerous are not the least intelligent
I want the white flag to be covered in haemoglobin
And become a bloody colour
For the red flag to lead us to revolution
For the proletariat to wake itself for emancipation
History is too slow and maybe we need to provoke it
Here’s a thanks to the militants readying minds
My socialism’s scientific, my concepts metaphysic,
My ideology is Trotskyist, my materialism, dialectic
I’m unashamedly for the fourth international
I believe in oppression and in its destruction
Vox populi, the voice of the masses needs to be heard
If you want peace prepare for war immediately
The wind of change will spread eventually
I’ve got to have faith or end up swinging
To go against the mass will lead to mass revolt
20% decide for the whole 100, this will end in blood
I feel the West (France) regressing
Democracy: A joke.
I come to say, youth will not stay passive
I come to say, our minds are sharp
NO race war, but a big fucking class war
Death to the bourgeoisie, dump the old Etonians (Enarques) in the canal
