New Kicks |
| We are gathered here, we come from so many different places |
| From different identities, different cultures |
| Different backgrounds different religions |
| And yet we can gather, under the guides of peace… now… |
| Peace now! |
| «We say no to war!» |
| Peace up, war down! |
| «We say no to war!» |
| Peace up, war down! |
| «We say no to war!» |
| Peace up, war down! |
| «We made it. |
| We’re here. |
| We’re here right now and we’re not leaving.» |
| Now I feel you, I feel you people |
| Now I feel you, I feel you people |
| Now I feel you, I feel you people |
| Now I feel you, I feel you people |
| Now I feel you, I feel you… |
| «Now, we have reports that more and more people are just taking on-ramps onto |
| the bridge and are just taking it over. |
| it’s just… just…» |
| «I mean, i’m just like. |
| ahh!» |
| This is what democracy looks like! |
| This is what democracy sounds like! |
| This is what democracy looks like! |
| This is what democracy sounds like! |
| «Reports from protests from Amman, Jordan… Amsterdam… and Beirut, Lebanon… |
| Dili, East Timor… Florence, Italy… London… Milano, Italy… |
| Paris, France |
| Dozens of cities in Spain… Reports in Athens, Georgia… Austin, Texas… |
| Blacksburg, Virginia… Charleston, South Carolina… Colorado Springs and |
| Defiance, Ohio… Denver, Colorado as well as Durango… Geneva, |
| New York and Houston, Texas… Hyannis, Massachussetts… In Hawaii as well… |
| Lawrence, Kansas… Los Angeles, California… AND I AM ONLY NAMING A FEW!» |
| Peace… now! |
| Peace… now! |
| And as Eleanor Roosevelt said… |
| «It isn’t enough to talk about peace, one must believe in it. |
| It isn’t enough |
| to believe in it, one must work at it» |
| And we here today are working at it! |
| «Peace is possible, and even necessary. |
| So drop the sword, pick up the hammer |
| and the saw. |
| And let’s build a better world!» |
| No blood for oil! |
| We will not be violent! |
| No blood for oil! |
| We will not be violent! |
| No blood for oil! |
| «We will not go to war, for a selected president, who wasn’t even elected!» |
| We must stand unbroken, unbowed, and unashamed |
| We need healthcare! |
| We need education! |
| We need freedom in this nation! |
| Freedom in this nation! |
| Freedom in this nation! |
| Freedom in this nation! |
| «Thousands of people have taken over 3rd Avenue and are marching North. |
| The crowd stretches at least 15 blocks from 44th street to 59th Street |
| The police have just simply… given up.» |
| This is what democracy looks like! |
| This is what democracy sounds like! |
| This is what democracy looks like! |
| This is what democracy sounds like! |
| Peace now |
| Peace now |
| (repeated behind next lines) |
| «We will not sell out! |
| We will not back down! |
| We will not compromise! |
| We will go forward |
| Until peace is on the world agenda!» |
| I started to feel that there were no more heroes in the World |
| But Today, I see all the World’s heroes standing before me |
| «We say no to war!» |
| No war! |
| «We say no to war!» |
| No war! |
| «We say no to war!» |
| No war! |
