We Will Rise Lyrics
I was always hopeful
But I was foolishly naive?
Did everything that I was told –
Look where it’s gotten me.
Isn’t this the greatest country…
The land of opportunity?
What happened to that promise?
What happened to that dream?
It’s time we redefine what our freedom means –
To take back our human rights against corporate machines.
The system is broken and we’re all victims of it’s lies.
We’ve been beaten down before but together we will rise…
Together we will rise x 8
I still love this country,
Though it keeps disappointing me.
Since when was middle class
So close to poverty
Where’s our learning curve?
Haven’t we lost this game before?
I will always teach our children
To live for something more!
It’s time we redefine what our freedom means –
To take back our human rights against corporate machines.
The system is broken and we’re all victims of it’s lies.
We’ve been beaten down before but together we will rise…
Together we will rise x 8
