Lyrics

[Chorus]

27 million sacrificed,[1]

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[2]

That fought against racist[3] 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.
