Rise Up - Lyrics

I can feel sweet inspiration mixing with the blood in my viens

But I feel just a little bit bitter why everything dont stay the same

Just when you think that you've got it made

Everything around your world begins to change.

 

So I took just a little bit of money that I put by for a rainy day

Then a man in a pin stripe suit with a stroke of his pen took it all away from me

I could tell by the look in his eyes

He never ever felt the shame

 

So rise up everybody in the world it's time

Rise up and let your heart sing out with mine

Rise up cause if things don't change you know there gonna stay the same.

 

Just consider that the world could be much better

If you took away the greed and hate

Spare a thought for the little old lady in a rocking chair

In which her dreams were made

Looking back over better days

Now everything around her world begins to change

 

So rise up everybody in the world it's time

Rise up and let your heart sing out with mine

And rise up cause if things don't change you know there gonna stay the same
