Wars begin with single bullets
Fired from mouths and rifles
How easy is it
To kill your brother
Curse all the mothers and fathers
And fuck their children
Defeat arrives knocking at your door
Before surrender can come before
There’s no ending or beginning to looks towards
To look forward
There are no families left together
All split up by central powers governed letters
Placed in camps near the border
Of this world and no other
A weary son returns molested and tries to leave a message
But there’s hardly any ears left that’ve already not been flattened
To improve the human heads aerodynamics
All you insiders please step forward for the bulletin
Free yourself help free the word
All you outsiders please step forward for the bulletin
Be yourself help free the world
All you leaders please step forward for the bulletin
Free your peoples flee the nation
All you in power please step forward for the bulletin
See your peoples flee the nation
A small shrew exits the bush
with a new momentum
Reaches the apex
surely climbs the mountain
Sees itself as a mortal
of this earth under heaven
Worship the sun and moon
follows their direction
Carries not a single worry
drinks fast from the fountain
Delivers a deliberate question
Who’s in charge of liberation?
