lyrics

They're kidnapping people in their unmarked vans
They slash and poison our water, open targets on our journalists
And teargas moratoriums, de-escalating seminars they can't help put this fire out
The blood is on our hands
This was a never again, now watch it happen again
Fragile White suburbanites clutching their pearl necklaces
They see graffiti, blame Antifa, lick the boot and go to sleep
And these are the people we know: Holiday White relatives
We refused to talk about it, refused to single them out
Our silence is the bed that we now sleep on
This movement is the chance that we depend on

Hey
Stay together!
Plain clothes cops are out to get you now
They are the boogey-men but we're community
Hey
Move together!
Grab your friends, coordinate, defend
This is our home
Quit your job and join the march is on, the time has come
Cause we are done with your racist bullshit

Enough
Enough
Enough
We've had enough
Enough
Enough

They have been saying it for years but did we really listen to their words?
They have been dying in the streets but did we really listen to the need?
Our silence is the bog that they emerged from
Our founding fathers laid this ground they walk on
They are not listening to me, they will not listen to you
They only listen to their hate
They only hunger for the fight
They want another Civil War
It's time to fight for what is Right
So grab your goggles, don your mask, and join the shield wall
White bodies up in front and all salute the U.S as it falls

Hey
Listen stranger!
Grab my arm
We're in this together now
Alone we are afraid, but together we'll be alright
Hey
Here's some water and some specs for blocking out the gas!
The police are rioting
Because they're losing all their money, power, toys, and their protections to incite
It's time to show these coward men that love and light prevail
We do this every night

Enough
Enough
Enough
We've had enough
Enough
Enough
We've had enough
Enough
Enough
Dayenu
Enough
Enough
Enough
