So Many Rising

Some will not remember, Most will never know What life was like before the new world Grass was clean The air was pure Spies weren't standing inside your doors Teardrops fall on my shoes Is there no time to be amused Poor are crying to be heard I'm crying for the world Society my friend, So many choices So many devices So many voices Many are confused Many are refused So many abuse So many rising So many rising So many rising Ignorant behavior Your strength becomes your weakness Who will be above the fray When the fray is getting higher everyday Society my friend, So many choices So many devices So many vices Many are confused Many are refused So many abuse So many rising So many rising So many rising The Shepherds are wolves protecting their goods And money is mightier than the pen Greed will always take whatever it can Maybe it must break before it bends Some will not remember, Most will never know What life was like before the new world Grass was clean The air was pure Spies weren't standing inside your doors Teardrops fall on my shoes Is there no time to be amused Poor are crying to be heard I'm crying for the world Society my friend, So many choices So many devices So many voices Many are confused Many are refused So many abused So many rising So many rising So many rising --- So Many Rising - Ziggy Marley
