So many promises
|
From master to slave
|
All lies and emptiness
|
From the cradle to the grave
|
We don't need words but action
|
We want it here
|
We want it now
|
|
What do you think they're doing
|
For you and me
|
Better save your life from ruin
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Rise up
|
Cry out to the nation
|
Rise up
|
Break out off your shell
|
Rise up
|
TV generation
|
Rise up
|
Go out give'em hell
|
You've got to clean your claws
|
Don't take no more
|
|
Don't have to hide away
|
From the colour of your skin
|
And you don't have to bare the cross
|
And suffer from their sins
|
|
Got to believe in something
|
Though you have faith in nothing
|
Life's like a bullet to your head
|
You've got to come out
|
|
What's your conclusion
|
Now do you believe
|
In a silent revolution
|
|
Rise up
|
Cry out to the nation
|
Rise up
|
Break out from your shell
|
Rise up
|
TV generation
|
Rise up
|
Go out give them hell
|
Rise up
|
|
Don't put your trust in the flames of the flag
|
Who's gonna wash of he blood form the tracks
|
When do the lion
|
Lie down with the lamb
|
When do we drop down
|
The guns form our hands
|
You see we build this world on solid ground
|
Do you wanna see it all come down
|
|
[Chorus]
|
