Anti-Flag - Exodus

First they came for the Communists, and I did not speak out.
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out.
Next they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out.
AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME
This is autonomy, (My American Dream)
Stepped over on the street, (Stars and stripes blinding me)
Their contagious and we pray, (My American Dream)
Classes about Black Plague, (Will mark your grave)
This is the second time, we will not fall in line,
No you cant stop, this exodus
No you wont stop this exodus.
No you cant stop, this exodus
No you wont stop this exodus.
A hooded prisoner on the bay (These truths let freedom ring)
A child Darfur refugee, (Home of the free and brave.)
the ghosts of war who will not sleep (These truths let freedom ring)
The poor who drown in bigotry. (Will mark your grave.)
This is the second time, (Yea its the second time) we will not fall in line,
No you cant stop, this exodus
No you wont stop this exodus.
No you cant stop, this exodus
No you wont stop this exodus.
Fight forever more (The movement of the people)
Fight forever more (The voice of the emigre)
Fight forever more (The movement of the people)
Fight forever more (The concession, no compromise)
