Rise Up

God you say is always the answer But what is the answer for our cruelty We punish a life 'til it's life ever after Ever after the place that we all end up being O' such is a morn' as this to awaken Forgotten the hour that was yesterday With a standing blow to the head of frustration Divided we fall have you nothing to say? So let us rise up Stand and be counted, stand and be counted On that let's agree Rise up Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of futility Many's the word that's been broken true anger Lips that are sealed as the hour slips away Belief is a joke to this lost generation Building the walls as the mind segregates But when all is said The voice that is silent can't be heard So let us rise up Stand and be counted, stand and be counted On that let's agree Rise up Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of futility For we, we shall overcome, someday So we bring the head of the ol' palace tribe For there is the rapture that bleeds out a life Hand over fist from their pulpit they spew Liars they'll crumble not knowing the truth But when all is said The voice that is silent can't be heard So let us rise up Stand and be counted, stand and be counted On that let's agree Let us rise up Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of futility Rise up Stand and be counted, stand and be counted On that let's agree Let us rise up Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of all human greed For we, we shall overcome Rise up Rise up Rise up Stand and be counted, stand and be counted On that let's agree Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of futility --- Rise Up - Flogging Molly
