Lyrics
[Chorus]
27 million sacrificed,
27 million who gave their lives,
27 million who lost their breath,
so the world could live free after all of this death
27 million sacrificed,
27 million who gave their lives,
27 million who lost their breath,
So the world could live free after all of this death.
[verse 1]
You wanna falsify history, skew and pervert it
Nullify, tame it, change and revert it
And put Joseph Stalin on par with Hitler
But nothing could really be more sinister
Than equating the fascist nazism
Which is really a desperate capitalism
Compared with the worlds first workers state
That fought against racist and sexist hate
The aim to emancipate man from man
With the overthrow of tzarism it began
But as soon as they made the great revolution
Imperial powers were out to maneuver
Fourteen countries encircling Russia
Still they prevailed over every last one of them
Onward we more to the great depression
The worlds economic crisis had threatened
Bosses everywhere, the people inspired,
To have their very own communist uprising
So all these governments attempted to crush them
Churchill, Musillini, and Hitler among them
Now we have a point that is usually lost
In the rewrite of history you won't come across
The U.S., Britain, and France supported
Fascist Germany with all of its torture
All of its savagery all its aggression
Hoping it would step in the Russian direction
But Stalin was not a man to ever be fooled
He created a strategy that greatly improved
The Soviet position on top of the army
Every indication was deeply alarming
The "Nazi-Soviet pact" was not
An agreement of friendship or some type of co-opt
It threw off the enemies in France and Britain
So now you see the whole entire plot will thicken
Inter-imperial rivalry speeds up
Old capitalist alliance it breaks up
Suddenly supporting Hitler backfires
And they need to come to terms with the Soviet rise
This is the basis for the war of alliance
The soviets did more than most of the fighting
It was (unintelligible) to backing the Nazi regime
The Red Army proletarian machine
That followed the way (unintelligible) to was the USSR that Really changed the fate
In course of world history they hear is the issue
Temporary allies will never give in to
The thought of a communist socialist earth
So the cold war raged on to fight over turf
[Chorus]
27 million sacrificed,
27 million who gave their lives,
27 million who lost their breath,
so the world could live free after all of this death
27 million sacrificed,
27 million who gave their lives,
27 million who lost their breath,
So the world could live free after all of this death.
