Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

Our future's here and now

Here comes the countdown

[Verse 3]

Sound it off, this is the call

Rise in revolution

It's our time to change it all

Rise and revolution

Unite and fight

To make a better life

Everybody one for all

Sound off, this is the call

[Verse 4]

Tonight, we rise

Rise

Tonight, we rise

Rise

Tonight, we rise

[Verse 5]

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 the light shines on a brave new day

[Verse 6]

Our future's here and now

Here comes the countdown

[Verse 7]

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

[Verse 8]

Tonight, we rise

Rise

Tonight, we rise

Rise

Tonight, we rise

[Verse 9]

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

Keep what you love

Never give up, no

[Verse 10]

Rise

Rise in revolution

Rise

Rise in revolution

Everybody one for all

Sound off, this is the call

[Verse 11]

Rise

Like we're alive

Tonight, we rise

Rise

Make a better life

Tonight, we rise

[Verse 12]

Rise, rise, rise and revolution

Rise, rise, rise and revolution

Rise

[Verse 13]

911?

There's a guy here with a gun!

Ma'am? Ma'am?

Kids, get under the table!

Kids get under the table!!!

[Verse 14]

We are getting in reports from all around the globe

Showing the highest unemployment rates since the end of World War II

Many are losing their jobs, their homes, and in many cases, their hope

[Verse 15]

You are such a failure! What is wrong with you? (I don't want this)

You can't do anything right! I wish you had never been born!
