Enter Shikari - Fanfare For The Conscious Man Lyrics

Artist: Enter Shikari

Album: Common Dreads

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Chris Batten, Liam Rory Clewlow, Roughton Reynolds, Robert Rolfe

Each nation used to provide its country with security
With factories providing arms for their country
Now multinational companies compete in the arms trade
To serve any customer, maximizing the money to be made

So just as farms compete to provide fruit for other countries
So people can live to enjoy the taste of nature
National warehouses compete to provide arms around the world
To aid death and all hell unfolds

Our gracious queen should grasp her crown
And take a good fucking swing at Blair and Brown
For leading her countries to illegal warfare
And trying to pass it off that we're doing 'cause we care

Now prudence of wars are a redemptive cause
I've never heard such nonsense under international laws
We think we have the right to enforce democracy
When we're weakening ours everyday, what hypocrisy

We'll be together against this
We'll be forever against this
We'll be together against this
We'll be forever against this

Fuck man
I just woke up to a land where killing is part of every day
And every mind in this intelligent species
Is then blinded into the battlefield
Like it's natural for us to break instead of build

Unities intrinsic the only cause worth fighting for
All religions, colors and creeds
Now we are the world and we are the people
We are the world and we are the people and we will be heard

We'll be together against this
We'll be forever against this
We'll be together against this
We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this
We'll be forever against this
We'll be together against this
We'll be forever against this
