So many promises From master to slave All lies and emptiness From the cradle to the grave We don't need words but action We want it here We want it now What do you think they're doing For you and me Better save your life from ruin [Chorus:] Rise up Cry out to the nation Rise up Break out off your shell Rise up TV generation Rise up Go out give'em hell You've got to clean your claws Don't take no more Don't have to hide away From the colour of your skin And you don't have to bare the cross And suffer from their sins Got to believe in something Though you have faith in nothing Life's like a bullet to your head You've got to come out What's your conclusion Now do you believe In a silent revolution Rise up Cry out to the nation Rise up Break out from your shell Rise up TV generation Rise up Go out give them hell Rise up Don't put your trust in the flames of the flag Who's gonna wash of he blood form the tracks When do the lion Lie down with the lamb When do we drop down The guns form our hands You see we build this world on solid ground Do you wanna see it all come down [Chorus]
