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!
