Rise Up

poetboy123

Feel that fire running through your veins

Only realized the value of sound in silence

Learned the truth of the lies in pain

Speaking out against every grievance

 

Rise up and shout for the voiceless

Rise up and stand against the greed

Rise up and inspire others through boldness

Rise up, but be ready to bleed

 

Refuse to back down or be silenced

Refuse to give up for their dreams

Be the hope for the hopeless

Defeat this world and the evil that teems

 

So you should

Rise up for those who have fallen

Rise up and refuse to bargain 

Rise up, even if you're ashen

Rise up for the right, whether it's against one or a billion
