Hungry people don't stay hungry for long
They get hope from fire and smoke as the wheat grows strong
Hungry people don't stay hungry for long
But, they get hope from fire and smoke as they reach for the dawn
The spirit of Jackson now screams through the ruins
Through factory chains and the ghost of the union
Forgotten remains disappear to their new homes
The knife the thrust the life burns to the raw bone
The blood on the floor of the tear is still dryin'
Cover the spread sheets the Dow Jones skyin'
Cell block, live stock the bodies their buyin'
Old south order, new northern horizon
Violence in all hands embrace it if need be
Livin' been warfare I press it to CD
Violence in all hands embrace it if need be
Livin' been warfare I press it to CD
A fire in the master's house is set
A fire in the master's house is set
A fire in the master's house is set
A fire in the master's house is set
Hungry people don't stay hungry for long
They get hope from fire and smoke as the wheat grows strong
Hungry people don't stay hungry for long
They get hope from fire and smoke as they reach for the dawn
Yeah , yeah check the high tech terror
Yes the new order athletes
Peer into the eyes of the child already on trial
Armies rippin' families apart get 'em on file
Convictions fit the stock profile, all the while films of dogs
Cutting through homes ripping skin from bones
Yes, the new millennium homes privatizing through private eyes and
An era risin' of the old south order new northern horizon
Violence in all hands embrace it if need be
Livin' been warfare I press it to CD
Violence in all hands embrace it if need be
Livin' been warfare I press it to CD
A fire in the master's house is set
A fire in the master's house is set
A fire in the master's house is set
A fire in the master's house is set
