Internationalists

If you believe you have an equal share In the whole wide world and all it bears An' that your share is no less or more than Your fellow sisters and brother man Then take this knowledge and with it insist Declare yourself, an internationalist If you lay no blame at the feet of next door An' realize this struggle is also yours An' that without the strength of us altogether The world as it stands will remain forever Then take this challenge and make it exist Rise up as an internationalist If your eyes see deeper than the color of skin Then you must also see we are the same within An' the rights you expect are the rights of all Now it's up to you to lead the call That liberty must come at the top of the list Stand proud as an internationalist If you see the mistake in having bosses at all You will also see how they all must fall For under this system there is no such thing As the democracy our leaders would have us sing No time for lies now as only truth must persist Rise up now and declare yourself, an internationalist
