Do you remember the old days when all were at war,

Do you remember the old days when rich men want more,

Do you remember the old days when they thought we were fools,

Do you remember the old days when we followed their rules.



Do you remember the old days when they tried to convince us,

As we let the ignorance be inflicted up on us

Do you remember when we were at the brink,

Before we broke free and felt what we think.



Do you remember asking , what is this fight?

Do you remember seeing that some things just wernt right,

Do you remember knowing your love for this earth.

And all life on this planet, and what it is worth.



Do you remember when families were broken,

When youth in this world seemed small and unspoken,

Do you remember when issues were swept under the carpet,

Until we fought for the changes that started.



Do you remember the days when peace was just ranted,

when the west had so much that we took it for granted,

Do you remember seeing americans invading,

whilst british coffins come back in ribbons brigading.



Do you remember the police would dimish the protests,

It was them with the weapons, and us needing stab vests,

Do you remember the media would twist the whole story,

Good people getting blamed again by the tory.



Do you remember when laws were passed in the night,

Do you remember if when you broke them they'd bite,

Do you remember when we'd just never revolt,

Children of empire, just do what we'r told.



Do you remember the time before we got back,

the soul of the earth that was under attack,

Do you remember realising how powerful you are,

theres a lot of magic happening right under these stars.



Do you remember seeing from the post of the fence,

what the power of love, is right up against,

do you remember asking if the tables would turn,

do you remember asking if fachists would learn.



Do you remember not being scared anymore,

Of them harrassing you until your too scared too talk,

Do you remember saying, we break free from these men,

Its them that need us, not us that need them.



Do you remember when hate stopped being inspiration,

when bitterness vanished from the soul of the nation,

When the new generations , said no and fought back,

and said "we won't shoot your guns and we won't smoke your crack"



Do you remember when good ideas were suppressed,

When rich men would fear that their class would have less,

Do you remember when they were losing control,

Our thoughts became free, our wheels would roll.



Do you remember when we said "no more , just no more",

Decided that mankind, lived under cosmic law,

Do you remember seeing love in all humans eyes,

Do you remember seeing, they control through lies.

like it - especially the first four verses. As a more universialality to it - the specifics of the later verses could be in the readers mind be applied to those four verses
