As the modern world divides to war And its leaders fight to settle scores The war machine turns green in profit form In its wake new fear is born And peace is scorn by the hands of man who justify Another death for their cause will no one question why Why these solutions never work!
[Chorus:] What's it gonna take... to break The idea that we're free To wage our wars On the grounds we found an enemy Break down these walls Rise up refuse... we Raise our voice raise our fists... to smash To crush the cogs of the modern war Will no one question The intention of an endless war Before you act learn the facts Don't just settle for The idea of freedom (freedom?) Purchased on a battle field (freedom?) Tell me what's it gonna take... what's it gonna take? SOMETHINGS GONNA BREAK!
3,000 dead the headlines read So shattered shocked I hung my head As I sat my heart sunk lower as I watched And the sky came falling These clouds of soot were not silver lined But lined with hate the kind of hate that's blind So blind we returned the favor quick!
[Chorus]
Something's gonna break... something (something's gonna break) What's it gonna take... what's it (gonna take) To break assassinate rise up and suffocate The lies that they create to justify their endless wars
The time has come to stand up straight 2002 it's not to late Rise up resist refuse to go to war What the fuck are we dying for? To rid the world of an enemy we cannot see... To die for Oil corporate interest power profit greed? What will it take... when will we learn?
