Lyrics and Music by Makana • Directed by Zac Heileson
Lyrics:
I've been lied to. Misled.
Built up by what they said
Lifted only to be let down
I've been taken for a ride
Given power to decide
Only to find out I was wrong
But I've learned to tell the ones who fake it
From the few really fit to run
Just follow the money they've been takin'
And the truth will shine like the sun
I'm so tired of lies now babe
Don't wanna compromise no way
And I feel the burn
For someone who can't be bought
To back the man who's fought
For the People of America
Color. Gender.
Who's a bigger spender?
Party. Personality.
Soundbite. Get it right.
Entertain 'em, it's a fight
Pick the one who most thinks like me
Don't speak of any real solutions
It's the shock appeal they're looking for
Don't criticize the institution
But I can't take it anymore
Aren't you tired of lies now baby?
It's time for us to rise- no more maybe
And I feel the burn
For the truth to come across
To melt away the gloss
And reveal their motivations
And you'll feel the burn
For integrity to lead
To focus on the needs
Of the People of America
Somebody's tuggin' at your heartstrings
Sayin' what you wanna hear
But they're just a pawn to the real kings
Playin' upon your fear
The love of power is a puppet string
But can't control the love we bring
The fire is ours
The hour is now
The tide is set to turn
And I feel the burn
To cast aside the chains
And salvage what remains
Of a dream worth defending
And you’ll feel the Bern
Standing up to greed
Word aligned with deed
Worthy President of America

As a passionate volunteer for the impeccable Bernie Sanders, I just can't get enough of this awesome video! Can't stop sharing it, either! I've been a hardworking progressive activist for decades & this campaign is absolutely exhilarating! Back to calling voters & yeah, I most definitely #FeelTheBern!!
Beautiful! Thank you Makana, thank you for giving voice to so many who hold this in their hearts... Lots of love and blessings to you... and to Mr. Bernie Sanders, who has my heart and my vote!
BRAVO! Amazing! Goosebumps galore. Well-done, thank you, and let's all make this happen: I'm a #NewUSCitizen voting in my first-ever election on 3/15, and I #FeelTheBern
How does this only have little more than 150k views, are people out of their minds? This song is freaking spectacular.
Love this. Right time, right place, it's now or never. Makana, you are a hero. Your courage is inspiring and motivating. Mahalo.
Makana rules !!!! Best song for Mr. Burn !!!!! This song moved me to tears !!!!!!!! You are truly a modern hero Makana--especially for us here in Hawaii !!!! Love you brother !!!!!
I'm crying !! This is *beautiful* !!!

I visualize the inauguration scene every single day. Thank you so much for providing the visual and auditory inspiration for an entire movement. This is so beautiful!
I got to hear you LIVE in Arizona last month, at the rally with Jane Sanders! Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
Makana also sung for an APEC global summit dinner in 2011. Look up Occupy Honolulu: Hawaiian Musician Makana Sings Protest Song to World Leaders at APEC Summit. He rocks! One of the best slack key guitarists in the world...
Holy Moly, the production value along with the lyrics, just incredible!
Holy shit!!!!! So proud of Makana, so proud to live Hawai'i. This is amazing!

I loved it. Hoping for millions of views. This needs to be viewed by everyone in America.
“Please listen to Bernie” A small blessed creature, flew in through the door…. It landed near Bernie, it made the crowd roar! Perhaps was a Sparrow, or maybe a Lark And just at that moment, I saw a small spark… I saw Bernie’s eyes, I saw Bernie’s smile…. The bird looked at Bernie…for more than awhile… Don’t care what you call it, Mother Nature, God, Spirit…. We all witnessed something, just hope you could hear it… This nation of ours, has been falling down fast, If we keep this up, there’s no way, we will last…. “Please listen to Bernie” I heard the bird say…. Then looked at the crowd, and then flew away… Vote Sanders

Awesome song Makana. Proud to see my fellow Hawaii musician do great things.
Glad to see you are back! Awesome song and it's on my playlist of Bernie stuff that gets me pumped up. Thanks for this!!!
Love the song and the fact you are using your talents to spread the truth and the BERN!
Bernie brought me here
Can you update this WONDERFUL Bernie anthem for 2020, just throw 2020 around. I will run a Facebook Ad for Utah for Bernie Sanders and will get other state pages too. Just need a little bit of change to make it 2020. He's going to run and the rest of us MUST DO OUR PART. Let's do this!
Makana has a new big fan. I love his music and of course I love that it is about Bernie. Saw Bernie live last night in Naperville, IL and now I see that Makana is going to be in Chicago at the Chicago Winery on Sept. 9th. I hope to see Makana live then. I wish he would tour with Bernie on his book tour. That would be spectacular. (If he and Tulsi Gabbard aren't married, they would make a beautiful couple.)

Awesome Song Makana, just like your "WE are the Many" song during Occupy :) Gonna make this BERN all over Facebook and Twitter for you!

@Alice Brennan ...So we're punishing Bernie for being the male he was born as...huh?! And you think Trump is doing a good job... And you think wanting a single payer healthcare system for *Everyone* is somehow selfish. And you fail to realize we've had an oligarchy all along. *WOW* You are one fine example of a failed educational system honey! I'm just gonna point in your direction anytime the topic comes up! You being such a caring human being I'm sure you won't mind right! Keep on laughing and doing whatever drugs you're doing hon, everyone needs something to get them through!

Not my usual type of jam but I like the message it brings and I like how he used his creativity to show everyone how he #FeelTheBern
very good video - -great images , smooth voice over substantial , poetic , inspired - and inspiring lyrics. Love the flames from the piano set in the classic vista of the wide open spaces of America. THe title is also profound - 'Fire is Ours'. It gets to the essence of the democratic republic that is our nation. THe fire is liberty, the blessings of liberty for all americans , regardless of category of differences on the outside. Also , it is poetic that the artist at times in the video put himself in the place of the president -- the president is the representative of the people . Bernie's ideals track with the ideals of our defacto mission stmt of our nation.... 'We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.'
Thanks for your creativity. With it you give dignity to us: the PEOPLE. Also, with your words and Bernie Sanders' words, action you , also, have empowered me! Beautiful rhythm, lyrics, sound effects and with the visual effect: BURNING A PIANO....I AM ON FIRE- feeling the BERN. From California-Central Valley where Foreclosures with illegal documents; ROBO-SIGNERS & MERS documents thousands in Stanislaus County have , just, walked away. Few of us have fought the court. So much corruption room#22 & #24 Civil court of this county. In 30 minutes I was left homeless and in the appeal the Judge Roger Beauchesne omitted the Ev taken during a coercive Bench trail. Abundance of Blessings are coming; I know so.
Great stuff! Liked and shared!
You are epic brother Makana. It is a Hawaiian hero.
BEAUTIFUL...THANK YOU

Alice Brennan oof, lady no. All of that was wrong, voting for Bernie is voting for the elites? When Bernie is the most anti-establishment candidate who wants to literally take power away from the oligarchy through a progressive tax system, Medicare-For-All, ending corporate lobbyists, and taking zero corporate PAC money and receiving no money from large bundle fundraisers of the elites. Meanwhile, Trump is the most establishment serving president we’ve had- tax cuts only for the wealthy, cutting Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, implementing the same or arguably worse NAFTA 2.0 for workers here in the US. He also vetoed a bill that would have ended our involvement in Yemen where Saudi Arabia is committing a genocide and Donald Trump himself said that Saudi Arabia was responsible for 9/11 and shouldn’t be our ally, yet now he gives them $800 billion dollar weapons deal. I don’t doubt that you may have very similar concerns for our country that I have, especially if you want an antiestablishment candidate... I just think you may be getting your news from the wrong shows. Maybe try the Jimmy Dore show or Secular Talk on KZread? Also... please don’t call me a liberal and equate me to Hilary Clinton fans 😂😂😂

@@MassimoMD I'll also add that you don't claim to be anti-establishment and have a platform that gives the government a ridiculously wider reach in power. That's what medicare for all will do, that's what taxing the wealthy (except Bernie, who is in the 1%) will do, that's what creating more gun control will do (look at Chicago, guns are BANNED and their gun crime is more rampant!). That is control that you will not be able to fight once it becomes tyrannical. And what Commie/Socialist country HASN'T become a shithole from tyranny or just being weak?

Why, WHY are so many of us 99% deaf and blind to what is important? What is moral? What is real? Once I found out Bernie was running I was euphoric only to come crashing down when I started hearing the lies, the disdain, the fear of change from other plebeians like me. It's maddening.
