Текст песни Sleeping Giant - Flobots

I am a sleeping giant
There lives a riot in my bones

Whiplashing masters
Rehashes the bad strategies
I'm abandoning the branding
And brandishing new prophecies
Slashing the patterns
With passionate new qualities
With outstanding tantrums
So large there's no stopping we
Abolish oligopolies
Toppling class sovereignty
Clashing rapids are habits
Of haven'ts who had it up to here
Tears build the river swells
Empire strikes and we rebel
Alliance of a living wage
To quench the flames of living hells

I was on the corner of no one cares
Heard something rumbling over there
Like a snare drum with a soldier's flare
Like a river run coming over here
See the screaming crowd saying everything goes
Extremely loud and incredibly close
Cracks in the ground as they steadily approach
Now the wave of sound surrounds and unrolls
The waters unfrozen frost soaks my kneecaps
While they unfold like washed up debris stacks
Wall to wall floats the feedback
Anonymous quotes we can say
For all the lost souls presente
Wade in the streets
March forth in the rushes
Feel the unstoppable force as it gushes
People wake up
To the heartbeat of the
Rhythm in the river as it roars with justice

Now I see what I am

I am a sleeping giant
There lives a riot in my bones
I am a sleeping giant
There lives a riot in my bones

From Mississippi to Cairo I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Wall Street to Oklahoma hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Chiapas to Rojava I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Lynchburg to Nova Scotia I hear footsteps (footsteps)

Whirlwind reaped and whirlwind sown
People rule don't need a throne
Cannot stop what they don't know
As above
So below
Rising
Climbing
Mighty
Defiant
Breaking ground and breaking silence
Now i can sing what I am

I am a sleeping giant
There lives a riot in my bones
I am a sleeping giant
There lives a riot in my bones

From Cochabamba to Marwar I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From the Maldives to New Orleans I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Ferguson to sacred stone I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Indomeni to the Florida Keys I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Oak Flats to Palestine I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From death row to jubilee I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From Nazareth to Galilee I hear footsteps (footsteps)
From us and them to you and me I hear footsteps

I am a mouthful of sea
I am a quiet indigo dawn
