Paloma Faith, Owen Jones - Politics of Hope

The rights and freedoms that we have today Were won by your mothers, your fathers, your grandmothers Your grandfathers, your ancestors before them We stand on the shoulders of giants and we owe it to our ancestors Not just to defend the rights and freedoms That they fought for at such cost and at such sacrifice That continue their struggle that a different sort of society Not a society run in the interests of a tiny elite But a society run in the interests of the majority Those who preach the politics of the spare They want us to believe that all in justice is like the weather That you can complain about your raining But there's nothing you can do about it But the politics of hope tells us something else
