Rise Up
Jonathan Pierce
The dream is all over You can't get by on just a dream anymore It's time to put our bodies into action We can't win any battles if we won't go to the war It's time to join hands and rise up Can't you see we're more and more out of touch Join hands and rise up Welcome to the struggle, now don't give it up (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) Oh-oh, yeah (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) Please say that you will Saying that you will won't make it happen anymore There's far too much work left to be done The children of the world need our love to be restored It's time to join hands and rise up Halfway to the mountain top ain't good enough Join hands and rise up It's time to fill our brother's empty loving cup (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) Rise up (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) Rise up Oh-oh-oh, rise up Rise up, people Hey! Come on, people! Rise up! (Join hands, people, rise up) (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) Oh-oh, rise up So rise to the occasion And realize that giving is it's own reward 'Cause sometimes we take good fortune for granted While we're eaten up inside by our own little wars It's time to join hands and rise up Can't you see we're more and more out of touch Join hands and rise up Halfway to the mountain top ain't good enough Come on and join hands and rise up Can't you see we're more and more out of touch Join hands and rise up It's time to fill our brother's empty loving cup (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) Come on, brothers and sisters (Come on and join hands, people, rise up) (Join, join, join, join, join) Come on, people Come on, people Rise up, yeah I'm gonna get up off my chair And gonna make somebody care I'm gonna rise up, rise up People, get up off your chair And make somebody care Come on, rise up, rise up, yeah...
