1.	LISTEN TO THE MASSES 02:11	lyrics	buy track
Cuz we work in the fields Work in the factories And live with those who do On my block in my hood Can’t speak without investigation Can’t talk without listening I’m not an elitist I’m a revolutionary Listen to the masses x4 The masses are the ones Who make history Looking for that spark of rebellion Together we’ll combat Our class enemies We’re fearless It’s in my ideology Tell me how We’ll fight back Tell me your ideas Cuz we’re coming back Create a plan Cuz we got ur back And we’re not afraid to get violent We’re not afraid to get violent Cuz when the masses are behind us we can do anything We can do anything with the people behind us We can do anything We can do anything You’ve got the ideas You’ve got the experience You know what we bring We bring leadership You’ve got the ideas You’ve got the experience You know what we bring We bring the leadership
2.	ENEMIES 02:20	lyrics	buy track
For all our enemies worldwide Walking the streets Surrounded all the time The people are angry They’re ready to rise Just need some guidance And direction Don’t you know that’s where we come in Disorganization the main trend That were fighting against Organize to liberate us Organize because we need us Last class in history Unite now for the best in me Women men sisters brothers Against the rich and with each other X3 You ever think about your enemies While your surrounded by your friends? Cuz I got a plan for you You know I always got a plan X2 Guess you’ll have to wait and see
3.	SYNTHESIZE 01:31	lyrics	buy track
Synthesize Take the progressive ideas of the people Leave the incorrect ideas behind Move the people to the left patiently Through two line struggle Take only the progressive ideas Leave the backwards ideas behind 2 line struggle X2 It’s not about class position It’s about class alignment Conducting investigation Meeting the daily demands of the people Going door to door in apartment complexes There will always be snitches The eyes of the ruling class in our own communities But we’re not afraid Asking the people What do you think What do you want to do? Making plans together Plans we could only make Through mass line 2 line struggle X3
4.	REVOLUTIONARY VIOLENCE 01:31	lyrics	buy track
Revolutionary violence We’re on attack Against all enemies of the working class X2 Tenants unite Against bad conditions Landlords cower To our strength We don’t kneel to our oppressors My hands are up to strike a blow We won’t succumb to revisionism X2 They tell us to protest but only the right way Don’t hit that car that tried to run you over They tell us to not fall for the bait Don’t be like them Don’t fight like then Reactionary violence can only be answered with force With force X2 I got hands And imma use them today Today X2 You got hands Why don’t u use them today Today X2
5.	RETURN THE IDEAS 01:35	lyrics	buy track
Return Return the ideas Apply Apply political line X2 Do your ideas help the ppl confront their serious problems Does it move them closer to revolution? Apply the process But always listen If they reject it Examine why Examine why Educate the people through agitation X2 If they don’t get won over got to start all over X2 Start all over X3

about

Punk is more than smashing bottles. Punk is more than bruises from a show. We’re united in our rage, but united for what?

There’s a reason we feel alienated. We were not meant to produce the wealth for the ruling class and be too tired to even enjoy our own lives.

We took our name from politics in action.

Mass Line is a process of revolutionary leadership where organizers first have to go to the people directly affected by an issue, and listen to their ideas. Then there’s two line struggle, or debate, to move the peoples’ ideas to the left. Next is coming up with a plan and returning these ideas to the people to move forward together.

This demo hopes to explain Mass Line. But you don’t have to just hear about it. There’s groups that practice this in real life, to fight for the working class.

Take the feeling the music gives you and put it to action. That’s what it’s meant for.
