Another couple kids with their heads on top
|
Just another stranger just another plot
|
Another track home where the city streets stop
|
Just another kid with another bored cop
|
|
Just another lemon into lemonade job
|
Just another rust and dust facade
|
Just another key stuck broken in the lock
|
Just another scarecrow choking on a cough
|
Oh come on!
|
|
It all feels so typical
|
Guess I'm looking for a miracle
|
Rise above it
|
I don't care what their telling me
|
We could be what we want to be
|
|
Rise above it
|
|
Listen up loud listen up listen here
|
Just because you're running
|
Doesn't mean that you're scared
|
Just because it's law doesn't mean it is fair
|
Never let another tell your soul what to fear
|
|
Here we go again give it one more try
|
Don't believe the system's on your side
|
Just another lover turned enemy fight
|
|
Just another blood and nicotine sky
|
Oh come on!
|
|
It feels so difficult
|
Guess I'm looking for a miracle
|
I get so sick of it
|
It feels so counferfeit
|
I rise above it
|
Rise above it
|
|
Hear our voices rise
|
Hear our battle cry
|
We've been under the curse
|
With our arms raised high
|
Hear us sing tonight
|
Like the last night on earth
|
We will rise like the tide
|
Like dead men
|
Coming back to life
|
We are rising
|
Rising
|
Turn it up now, listen loud and clear
|
Just because you're present
|
Doesn't mean you're here
|
Oh come on!
|
|
Let's rise above it
|
We can rise above it
|
|
