There are superpowers
And they’re stomping ‘round our globe
It’s always the final hour
Before another imperialist war

They got a permanent murder machine
They terrorize us to follow their schemes
Then they bribe us with American dreams
How long will we let them get away clean?

Our deepest human need
Is learning how to see
Together we’re the real superpower

See us marching in the streets
Whose streets? Our streets
Workers and soldiers, younger and older
International and deep

‘Cause we’ve been building their bombs and tanks
We’ve been the tellers in their banks
All we get is a deadly thanks
How long before we break ranks?

Our deepest human need
Is learning how to see
Together we’re the real superpower

Urgency, urgency
And patience
Urgency, urgency
And patience

Our deepest human need
Is learning how to see
Together we’re the real superpower

There’s a superpower
And we’re the last hope of our globe
It’ll be our finest hour
When we take back our historic home

We have so many seeds to sow
So many secrets to study, to know
Many illusions to let go
And the only way to move is forward

Our deepest human need
Is learning how to see
Together we’re the real superpower

We’re the superpower
The real superpower
We’re the superpower
The real superpower
