So many promises 
From master to slave 
All lies and emptiness 
From the cradle to the grave 
We don't need words but action 
We want it here 
We want it now 
What do you think they're doing 
For you and me 
Better save your life from ruin [Chorus:] 
Rise up Cry out to the nation 
Rise up Break out off your shell 
Rise up TV generation 
Rise up Go out give'em hell 
You've got to clean your claws 
Don't take no more 
Don't have to hide away 
From the colour of your skin 
And you don't have to bare the cross 
And suffer from their sins 
Got to believe in something 
Though you have faith in nothing 
Life's like a bullet to your head 
You've got to come out 
What's your conclusion 
Now do you believe 
In a silent revolution 
Rise up Cry out to the nation 
Rise up Break out from your shell 
Rise up TV generation 
Rise up Go out give them hell 
Rise up Don't put your trust in the flames of the flag 
Who's gonna wash of he blood form the tracks 
When do the lion 
Lie down with the lamb 
When do we drop down 
The guns form our hands 
You see we build this world on solid ground 
Do you wanna see it all come down [Chorus]
