about

Released 25 November 2022

This song is dedicated to the global movement of citizens fighting for climate justice.

Here Paul is drawing inspiration from his Australian Pub-Rock roots, in particular, Midnight Oil.

Originally released in 2019, this song has been remixed from the ground up.

"The People Are Getting Loud" echoes the chorus.

lyrics

Who’ll Stop the People (District 12 Mix) © Paul J Rogers 2019

I see no problems
Only solutions here
And the soldiers I lead
They’re fighting for peace
The war that I’m waging
Is of morals and pride
The slow moral slide
Open your eyes

Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
In this war (a small girl to a crowd)
In this war (a small girl to a crowd)
Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
You can’t stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
In a wall (a small girl to a crowd)
In a wall (a small girl to a crowd)

I see no shadows
Only my kindred at heart
The pagans of hope
Go fight the ‘good fight’
And the war that I’m waging
Keeps on growing each day
The progress of greed
It’s moral decay

Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
In this war (a small girl to a crowd)
In this war (a small girl to a crowd)
Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
You can’t stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
In a wall (a small girl to a crowd)
In a wall (a small girl to a crowd)

And if you sacrifice many
Together we’ll stand
And if you’ve climate change profits
There’s blood on your hands
And the world court will find you
And the gavel be laid
Like the generals in past wars
Justice finds a way
Justice finds a way

Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
In this war (a small girl to a crowd)
In this war (a small girl to a crowd)
Who’ll stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
You can’t stop the people (the people are getting loud)?
In a wall (a small girl to a crowd)
In a wall (a small girl to a crowd)
