Anti-Flag - The Debate Is Over (If You Want It) Lyrics






For the first time in my life I'm truly free
To see the clear cut forest for the poisoned sea
To see the waters occupy the shores of Jersey

And I feel alive

For the first time in my life I'm truly free
To watch the waters persecute in New Orleans

87 days of disregard on a livestream
Fukashima radiate into the deep sea

Don't let 'em tell you this is on your back
The point of contention is how they act
Where you draw the line will set you free

The debate is

For the last time in our lives we'll get to see
Sunsets reflect and shine off of Greenland sheet
There's too much to gain letting things "be as they be"
As the same who sell disease they also sell "green"

So just change the light you buy
Or just change the car you drive
But don't change the make up of their economy

Don't let 'em tell you this is on your back
The point of contention is how they act
Where you draw the line will set you free

Don't let 'em tell you this is on your back
The point of contention is how they act
Where you draw the line will set you free

The debate is...

The debate is over.

    Capitalism has empowered and brought more people out of poverty than any ideal.

    S.... J....

    Capitalism distributed wealth into two classes of rich and poor. it just gave more people the chance to exploit others.
    Since capitalism is the only economic system that has been practised closest to its theory that isn't really a valid argument
    and besides workers could earn a decent wage through trade unions who were the only ones caring about workers rights and those people weren't capitalists.

  8. V.... V....

  54. D.... M....

    Between these two classes a struggle must go on until the workers of the world organize as a class, take possession of the means of production, abolish the wage system, and live in harmony with the Earth.
    IWW

    D.... M....

    @Tormented Souls shut up

    D.... M....

    Sorry about being late. But I do agree with a lot of your points. I also believe that people in America and elsewhere are becoming so polarized as many of the people (on either side) are choosing to centralize themselves in their own believes, and it's like you do realize that everybody has their own opinions on things, and we shouldn't be fighting with each other over them, but rather actually trying to understand the other sides' viewpoints. Instead we just go around saying "Nazi, Nazi, fascist, racist" or "Communist, Communist, America-hater" etc. etc., and it doesn't really help us but rather makes each of our side look like uneducated idiots. As far as Socialism in a capitalist society goes, I believe that the only slivers of "Socialism" that should be (and are, in fact, available to us in America currently) allowed are just basic social programs, such as welfare, healthcare, and other public facilities (none of which should be all free, to mention). Anything else, like making healthcare and welfare free, I draw the line because free social programs will lead to lack of quality healthcare (like how there is only one out of three hospitals in Toronto, Canada that provide lycopodium for people with kidney stones, and it takes about 3-4 months before you can get a surgery, and I hear that kidney stones are extremely painful).

    D.... M....

    agree bro

    D.... M....

    Anarchy can live, but wage system must insist

    D.... M....

    You're either high or you're an absolute idiot. :D

  55. S.... ....

    One of their best acoustics yet!

  56. M.... D....

    Dopeee🤘

  57. K.... C....

    Yes!! I love you guys!!!

  58. Z.... R....

    Don't understand much of the song but it sounds like it's a good meaning

    Z.... R....

    Zahkia 99 what don't you understand? The "Jersey" and "New Orleans" references? these are iconic places in America that are in danger from climate change (New Orleans) and pollution (New Jersey)... Fukushima is a reference to the nuclear meltdown that happened in Japan... the song is about changing your life style to protect the Environment or don't it's up to you but what they're saying is we only have one planet and once it's fucked up that's it

    Z.... R....

    Listen to the song lol

    Z.... R....

    @Andrew Johnson Kind of. It's actually more about how we're doomed because climate change is scientifically accepted. But we can't stop it. Corporations just push the burden on us. Tell us we need to change how we live. But they won't change their corporations. Which are actually what cause all of the emissions.

  59. J.... S....

    Love your music, and much like Bad Religion, you songs hold up really well as acoustic performances as well.

  60. c.... s....

    Your music never gets old, love you guys!! Cheers from Iberian Peninsula

  61. G.... ....

    Good stuff, boys!
