Rise Up Lyrics


Rise up, I gave you your orders

Stand back and be counted

Find out your reason for living,

Your destiny's calling

You're one in a million

The same as the others

There’s nothing different for you

The odds are against you

But that’s not my problem

No excuses to lose

Rise up

Give me your best

Rise up

I won’t wait to find out why we’re dying

I can’t stay to find out why we’re living

Rise up, this is your calling,

Your protestations denying

Scream loud, your silent confession

Your final delusion

The lines are retreating

The barricades falling

The general shouts his command

So many have fallen

And so many dying

A futile skirmish will be your last goodbye

Rise up

Hold your last breath

Rise up

I can’t stay to find out why we’re living

I won’t wait to find out why we’re dying
