Song | Rise |
Artist | The Flobots |
Album | Fight with Tools |
So much pain | |
We don’t know how to be but angry | |
Feel infected like we’ve got gangrene | |
Please don’t let anybody try to change me | |
Me, just me, in the middle of a sea full of faces | |
Full of faces, some laugh, some salivate | |
What’s in your alleyway | |
Recycling bins or bullet cases? | |
It’s not equal, it’s not fair | |
We’re different people but we're not scared | |
We ain’t never scared to pave a new path | |
Make a new street, build a new bridge | |
Say, can you see by the dawns early light? | |
Free slaves running, songs words weren’t right | |
Now, a new days coming | |
The few stay stunning while the many are handsome | |
Your soul is alive but they want it for ransom | |
The bass drumming is the anthem | |
We step to the heartbeats | |
Of our granddaughters and grandsons | |
AndRise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Lost hope and found need | |
Grounded by our surroundings | |
Did the walls scream, universities | |
Or you and | |
I verse the tees? | |
React, automatic and we burst when squeezed | |
And make 9-11 each emergency | |
Urgency, amber to red like the turning leaves | |
Oh please, let the hurting cease | |
Don’t let apathy police the populace | |
We will march across | |
Those stereotypes that were marked for us | |
The answer's obvious, we switch the consonants | |
And change the sword to words and lift continents | |
Rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
Together we rise, together we rise | |
If you believe in redemption(Rise, rise) | |
I’m calling to you from another dimension(Rise, rise) | |
If you believe in redemption(Rise, rise) | |
I’m calling to you from another dimension(Rise, rise) | |
If you believe in redemption(Rise, rise) | |
I’m calling to you from another dimension(Rise, rise) | |
If you believe in redemption(Rise, rise) | |
I’m calling to you from another dimension(Rise, rise) |
