inspired by leia the vixen we arise
with truth in our pocket and glitter framing our eyes
we rise up to fight unrepentant evil—to do battle with the sith
we are rallying our troops looking for the Jedis in our midst
our powers are faintly formed but are imagined cinematically
we must learn to control our emotions and let psychic power fly free
science fiction is a mirror through which we examine what we are
utopian or dystopian imagination let loose amongst the stars
our brains are evolving–flying in hyperdrive
what we now view as pathology can be transformed into what keeps us alive
sparks of the divine are rising powerfully in these times
we find our inspiration in street art, pop riffs, and hip hop rhymes
the force is strong in our resistance–striking blows in the belly of the beast
we must bring down this rabid empire and bring about true freedom in the middle east
a global intifada must be our aspiration
we fight to create a liberated global nation
we are aspiring jedi and we have mountains of work to do
the rebellion starts within and radiates from me to you
our global tribe must become an army blessed with karmic power and strength
we must conquer this toxic system if it takes our last gasp of breath
