The Revolution Won't Be Televised Lyrics

(The revolution won't be televised)

(The revolution won't be televised)

The revolution wont be televised, the government been telling lies

Switch on us when we rise, that's why the masses terrified

Just wake up, the world is wrong, eyes wide and realize

Palestine is getting bombed, the East in chains paralyzed

Don't forget about my city where the homeless left to die

While our country funds the war, supporting fucking genocide

Mass immigration paying debts, will we cross a line?

Tricking others with our burden, limit us the tools to fight

Transpire a revolution for the people, view my light

Shine it on the problems that our country keeping out of sight

Shine hope for the homeless to get some rest in bed at night

To live without a cost should be a god given fucking right

Over here in YEG police brutality is normality

Fed caused casualties unreported by the faculty

I'm just here to protect my people and my home community

Try some pigs, don't give a fuck what you try to do to me

(The revolution won't be televised)

(The revolution won't be televised)

Fuck the oppression, I'm sick of sifting through the madness

Time to learn the lesson that the country's filled with fascists

Military on our people, no regrets of damage

Taxing the population as soon as some cash hits

This city and the world have just filled me up with sadness

Come live the Canadian dream in cities filled with addicts

Hiding the fact Canadian's can't afford a mattress

Twisted news maintaining governmental perfect status

I'm yelling fuck the parliament but mainly fuck Justin

Censored and gaslit governmental corruption

They say they want the best for us, I know that they bluffing

Tried to push election for some pay and than lied that it's nothing

It's coming, there's no running, I'm exposing your greed

Expanding thoughts for change, I'm steady planting the seed

Shining light for the people you fucking failed to feed

Those the type of people that I'm forever fighting to lead

(The revolution won't be televised)

(The revolution won't be televised)

(The revolution won't be televised)

(The revolution won't be televised)
