Someone
Someone
Pick a side
Sitting there watching your wheat grow
Why don't you rise?
Amber waves mean Nothing now
Nothing to me
The banners have never been so beaten
Bullet holes mar the star field
It means nothing toΒ Β me now
You should rise
You should rise
In unity we
Once stood majestic mountain high
Stand now
Oh okay
Lean on me
It's only a store bought word
Liberty
Rise no more against
The corporate machine
Your voice is lost
Against the social media screen
I have no brother
I have no border
I have no one
To help me see
A future where we can
Live in harmony
Oh rise one more time
Face the setting sun
For I fear tomorrow
This land has none
