Day by day I see the world And nothing seems to ever change Realize we burn the candle at both ends The same old song on radios The same old boring narrow talks Open your eyes, control your own destiny What I want is what I need No matter if you're black or white They'll never say that we are right They get the whole world in their hands Rise, revolution, rise Now is the time, this is our life The house is burning to the ground Rise, revolution, rise Break the rules to find the truth Listen to your inner voice This whole system is corrupted at its core They say only the strong survives but I know Only rich ones thrive. Centuries of domination come to an end What I want is what I need No matter if you're black or white They 'll never say that we are right They get the whole world in their hands Rise, revolution, rise Now is the time, this is our life The house is burning to the ground Rise, revolution, rise
