Rise

They whisper freedom, chain your hands Silent rulers of stolen lands They forge your burdens, they carve your fate Dress the noose in a crown of grace Rise, with impunity Rise, come stand next to me Rise, we will march through the storm Rise from the ashes and shatter the chains! You bleed, you break, you crawl, obey Slaves to the system they won’t betray The cost of living, the price of breath Work till you die, then there’s nothing left Rise, with impunity Rise, come stand next to me Rise, we will march through the storm Rise from the ashes and shatter the chains! They sell you hope, they sell you pride Dressed up graves where your dreams have died Eyes sewn shut, minds deceived You’re on your knees Rise, with impunity Rise, come stand next to me Rise, we will march through the storm Rise from the ashes and shatter the chains!
