All I see is shattered pieces I can't keep it hidden like a secret I can't look away From all this pain in a world we made
Everyday you need a bulletproof vest To 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
CHORUS Sound it off, this is the call Rise in revolution It's our time to change it all Rise in 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 rise Rise
VERSE 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
CHORUS
BRIDGE In a world gone mad In a place so sad Sometimes it's crazy (crazy) To fight for what you believe
But you can't give up (no) If you wanna keep what you love
Keep what you love Keep what you love Keep what you love Never give up, no!
Rise Rise and revolution Rise Rise and revolution
Everybody one for all, Sound off, this is the call!
Rise Like we're alive Tonight we rise Rise Make a better life Tonight we rise Rise
