There are screams in the streets of what is right 
Voices lift in one impassioned song.
Pick up your weapon and join in the fight. 

The masses stand, a staggering sight
If ev’ryone's right then is everyone wrong?
There are screams in the streets of what is right 

The military shows its strength and might. 
The marching lines are drawn and standing strong
Pick up your weapon and join in the fight

Marching and chanting from dusk until light
Flowing like a river rushing headstrong 
There are screams in the streets of what is right 

For all the clamor that can't be put to light 
Sides clash with each other's prong.
Pick up your weapon and join in the fight.

Will you stand quiet and alone tonight,
Or will you walk the path laid out long?
There are screams in the streets of what is right 
Pick up your weapon and join in the fight

*I specifically need help with line #14.
I like the how anthemic theme matches the rhythm. I get a sense of a group of protesters marching when reading. I always suggest reading a piece out loud to check the meter. Enjoyed this!
