Skillet - Rise Lyrics
All I see isShattered piecesI can't keep it hidden like a secretI can't look away!From all this pain in a world we made!Everyday you needA bulletproof vestTo save yourself from what you could never guess!Am I safe today?When I step outside in the wars we wage!Our future's here and now,Here comes the countdown!Sound it off, this is the call!Rise and revolution!It's our time to change it all,Rise and revolution!Unite and fight, to make a better life!Everybody one for all,Sound off, this is the call, tonight, we rise!Rise.Tonight, we riseRise.Tonight, we rise!Like a hand grenade,Thrown in a hurricane,Spinning in chaos,Trying to escape the flame,Yesterday is gone!Faster than the blast of a car bomb!And when the scars heal,The pain passes,As hope burns, we rise from the ashes!Darkness fades away!And a light shines on a brave new day!Our future's here and now,Here comes the countdown!Sound it off, this is the call!Rise and revolution!It's our time to change it all,Rise and revolution!Unite and fight, to make a better life!Everybody one for all,Sound off, this is the call, tonight, we rise!Rise.Tonight, we riseRise.Tonight, we rise!In a world gone mad,In a place so sad!Sometimes it's crazyTo fight for what you believe!But you can't give up,If you wanna keep what you love!(Keep what you love)(Keep what you love)(Keep what you love)(Keep what you love)Never give up, no!Rise.Rise and revolutionRise.Rise and revolutionEverybody one for all,Sound off, this is the call!RiseLike we're aliveTonight, we riseMake a better lifeTonight, we rise!Rise, rise, rise and revolutionRise, rise, rise and revolutionRise.*phone rings*Operator: 911?Woman: There's a guy here with a gun!Operator: Ma'am?
