Streets of Minneapolis Lyrics

Through the winter′s ice and cold
Down Nicollet Avenue
A city aflame fought fire and ice
'Neath an occupier′s boots

King Trump's private army from the DHS
Guns belted to their coats
Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law
Or so their story goes

Against smoke and rubber bullets
In the dawn's early light
Citizens stood for justice
Their voices ringing through the night

And there were bloody footprints
Where mercy should have stood
And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets
Alex Pretti and Renee Good

Oh, Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Singing through the bloody mist
We′ll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst

Here in our home, they killed and roamed
In the winter of ′26
We'll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis

Trump′s federal thugs beat upon
His face and his chest
Then we heard the gunshots
And Alex Pretti lay in the snow dead

Their claim was self-defense, sir
Just don't believe your eyes
It′s our blood and bones and these whistles and phones
Against Miller and Noam's dirty lies

Oh, Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Crying through the bloody mist
We′ll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis

Now they say they're here to uphold the law
But they trample on our rights
If your skin is black or brown, my friend
You can be questioned or deported on sight

In our chants of, "ICE out now!"
ICE out! (Right now!) ICE out! (Right now!)
Our city's heart and soul persist
ICE out! (Right now!) ICE out! (Right now!)
Through broken glass and bloodied tears
ICE out! (Right now!) ICE out! (Right now!)
On the streets of Minneapolis
ICE out! (Right now!) ICE out! (Right now!)

Oh, Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Singing through the bloody mist
Here in our home they killed and roamed
In the winter of ′26

We′ll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst
We'll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis
We′ll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis

ICE out! (Right now!)
ICE out! (Right now!)
ICE out! (Right now!)
ICE out! (Right now!)
ICE out! (Right now!)
ICE out! (Right now!)
