David Bowies Revolutionary Song
When people call us revolutionary
Theyre just tryin to see
All that we choose
When all we want is everybody free
The universe would be one brotherhood
It isnt wrong to be prepared to fight
Together to unite if we believe
In giving everything our heart and soul
Until we reach the goal we should achieve
It shouldnt matter if were brown or white
Yellow or black as night to anyone
Were all born equal with the self same rights
Sharing the same daylight under the sun
If loving freedom makes me quality
Of opportunity is where revolutionary
Constantly, fervently, firmly
Revolutionary

A man who dreads trials and difficulties cannot become a revolutionary. If he is to become a revolutionary with an indomitable fighting spirit, he must be tempered in the arduous struggle from his youth. As the saying goes, early training means more than late earning.

I love rock-n-roll. I think it's an exciting art form. It's revolutionary. Still revolutionary and it changed people. It changed their hearts. But yeah, even rock-n-roll has a lot of rubbish, really bad music.

By the end, everybody had a label -- pig, liberal, radical, revolutionary ... If you had everything but a gun, you were a radical but not a revolutionary.

Born To Fight
Theyre tryin to take away my pride
By stripping me of everyhing I own
Theyre tryin to hurt me inside
And make me into a white mans drone
But this ones not for sale
And I was born to fight
I aint been knocked down yet
I was born to fight
Im the surest bet
There aint no man no woman
No beast alive that can beat me
cause Im born to fight
Theyre tryin to dig into my soul
And take away the spirit of my god
Theyre tryin to take control
And monitor my every thought
I wont let down my guard
And I was born to fight
I aint been knocked down yet
I was born to fight
Im the surest bet
There aint no man no woman
No beast alive that can beat me
cause Im born to fight

A smile for Meena
It’s like those Russian dolls:
inside the teenager
is the rebel;
inside the rebel
is the revolutionary;
inside the revolutionary
is the reformer.
Make us all proud.

There are two ways of resisting war: the legal way and the revolutionary way. The legal way involves the offer of alternatinve service not as a privilege for a few but as a right for all. The revolutionary view involves an uncompromising resistance, with a view to breaking the power of militarism in time of peace or the resources of the state in time of war.

This is black and white (response to When I Born, I Black) Apr 2006
When I born, I not good
whether in the big house or the 'hood
When I grow up, I learn more bad
people all around make me mad
But When I go in Son, my spirit changes
free from prejudice, hate and chains
So When I scared, I call on the Lord
protect me, change hearts, rule this world!
What makes me sick? anyone who can't see
their need to change too and get on knees.
When you die, black white yellow brown
each will be judged, so turn your heart around!
Cuz God’s love is color-blind to skin, but not sin.
'black’ or ‘white' of your heart is transparent to Him!

Firebrand
What is your feeling about the revolutionary spirit ofyour age, as expressed, for instance, in such movements as communism, surrealism, anarchism?
The revolutionary spirit of our age (as expressed by communism, surrealism, anarchism, madness) is a hot firebrand thrust into the dark lantern of the world.
In Nine Decades

Thoughts On Revolution... (Number Three)
revolutionary questions:
1. what are we willing to
give up in order to insure
that all peoples have the same,
and equal rights to live?
2. what are we willing to change,
in our ways of life, and in our
thinking?
3. are we willing?
if the answer is not yes
to the last question, there's
no reason for us to go on!
revolution means risk...
come to think of it... it
sounds a lot like love!

Both the revolutionary and the creative individual are perpetual juveniles. The revolutionary does not grow up because he cannot grow, while the creative individual cannot grow up because he keeps growing.

My personal influence in the Revolutionary Governing Council is such that the dictatorship of the proletariat is firmly established, since the masses are backing me.
We happen to be the vanguard of that revolutionary struggle because we are the most dispossessed.
