Operation: Mindcrime

Speak

Record Details

Release
1988

(Geoff Tate, Michael Wilton)

Lyrics:
They’ve given me a mission
I don’t really know the game yet
I’m bent on submission
Religion is to blame
I’m the new messiah
Death Angel with a gun
Dangerous in my silence
Deadly to my cause

Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak the word
The word is all of us

I’ve given my life to become what I am
To preach the new beginning
To make you understand
To reach some point of order
Utopia in mind, you’ve got to learn
To sacrifice, to leave what’s now behind

Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak the word
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us

Seven years of power
The corporation claw
The rich control the government, the media the law
To make some kind of difference
Then everyone must know
Eradicate the fascists, revolution will grow

The system we learn says we’re equal under law
But the streets are reality, the weak and poor will fall
Let’s tip the power balance and tear down their crown
Educate the masses, We’ll burn the White House down

Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak the word (Revolution)
The word is all of us
Speak the word (Revolution)
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us
Speak the Word
The word is all of us

SPEAK!!!
