Rise Up For Life
We live in a corrupt era
Under the rule of a tyrant
Who cares about his fat wallet
Then the lives of billions!
He wishes to reopen America
To make people go back to worse
That'll cause more casualties
As the monster devours their souls!
He wants to sacrifice the masses
Just to save his sorry ass!
People are grieving
Lives snuffed like a flame
Businesses losing their income
Celebrations destroyed thanks to him!
Is this what its come to?
A dystopian present
Where a biological monster
Strikes fear in our hearts
As we distance from all
We've ever known?
But there's a silver lining
An eternal truth behind the veil
That's opened its curtains
To show us the horrid truth
The government's true form!
They care not for our lives!
They care not for our livelihood!
They care not for our dreams!
They care not for our bonds!
They care not for our souls!
How much longer must they run the show?
To try to tie strings onto our souls
Continue to make us into their play things?
Time to cut the strings of control
Awaken the free will that lies within
Awaken the rebel within your souls!
Its time to take it all back!
Take back our normalcy!
Take back our freedom!
Take back our country!
Take back what we love!
Take it all back from chaos!
Within our soul is a rebel
Waiting to be awakened
Discard the brainwashed lies
That they plant in your minds
Awaken the truth deep inside
Rise up to stand for whats right!
Time to start a rebellion
Time to start a riot
Time to start a revolution
Time to start a revolt
For our loved ones
For our friends
For our dreams
For our future
Time we chose our future
That rests in our hands
Not in the hands of a tyrant
Who thinks he can take all
That he wants from our world!
Rise up humanity!
Put aside your differences
Put aside your struggles
Put aside your despair
Put aside your insanity!
Hope, Faith and Unity
Kindness, Generousity, Happiness
Dreams, Motivation, Inspiration
Is what the world needs right now!
So rise up for life!
Rise up to take back
What is truly ours
Lets write a new beginning
For our world to guide it
Down the right path once again!
