Uprising

 
…and so the time has finally come
To raise our voices against our oppressors
To fight for what is rightfully ours
The once oppressed become the aggressors

Desperate times call for desperate measures
The people will once again join the fight
Because when tyranny overrules the masses
A deadly storm arises with a mighty smite

Men have perished for their beliefs and rights
Because a deep seeded idea can live forever
It is at the crux and the core of a man’s soul
And that’s something no blade can ever dissever

When the battle comes will you rise too
And defend the notions you’ve conceived
Every human being is born innocent and free
So take up the cause for what you believe
