lyrics

Chorus
death smog fills this wretched place, we cannot breathe
People starving, all the food is being hoarded
Confined spaces, shanties filling all the land
No more choices, all our freedoms have been purchased
All around the world the people are revolting
The rulers, the filthy rich have been building their offenses
Numbers, powers, the two sides are all out brawling
Welcome to the war of 2060

Bridge
Years of greed – have finally taken their toll
Revolution throughout the world
The land is raped, there is not enough
Resources to sustain

Verse 1
The proletariat have been
Building forces to combat the
Emporers who have stole from them
Who have stolen from the Earth
A large concentration of wealth
Began to emerge years ago
The pockets of only a few
Held all of the dreams of billions
The poverty of the masses
Made them have to buy the cheapest
Things that they could leading to the
Exploitation of all labor
Further expanding the poor class
The former well-off now struggled
As the lower class expanded
Class warfare became demanded

Chorus
death smog fills this wretched place, we cannot breathe
People starving, all the food is being hoarded
Confined spaces, shanties filling all the land
No more choices, all our freedoms have been purchased
All around the world the people are revolting
The rulers, the filthy rich have been building their offenses
Numbers, powers, the two sides are all out brawling
Welcome to the war of 2060

Bridge
Years of greed – have finally taken their toll
Revolution throughout the world
The land is raped, there is not enough
Resources to sustain

Verse 2
First they all tried democracy
Special interests made this useless
For it was already too late
Corporations were those in charge
They fought for deregulation
Battle by battle they won it
Monopolies began forming
And the elites just kept hoarding
Complete disconnect from labor
No one could afford their own cre-
-ations, it was all being built for
The upper-class controlling them
Globalization was then used
By the proletariat to
Organize themselves against the
Forces that kept them all oppressed



Here we go out of the fold
Here we are to reclaim what is ours
Here we fight to end this plight
Our discord will now be yours

Chorus
death smog fills this wretched place, we cannot breathe
People starving, all the food is being hoarded
Confined spaces, shanties filling all the land
No more choices, all our freedoms have been purchased
All around the world the people are revolting
The rulers, the filthy rich have been building their offenses
Numbers, powers, the two sides are all out brawling
Welcome to the war of 2060
Welcome to the war of 2060
Welcome to the war of 2060
Welcome to the war of 2060
Welcome to the war of 2060

Here we go out of the fold
Here we are to reclaim what is ours
Here we fight to end this plight
Our discord will now be yours
