Call to Action (Rise Up in Arms)

Now the world has decided
That it's up to me
One choice one decision
To see what I'll be
But not my choice alone no
Everybody puts in
All for the hopes that
They'll call me their kin

To influence and push me
In directions they want
And reasons I should go there
Reasons they do flaunt
As if trophy of a contest
Is all that I am
And my personal opinion
They don't give a damn

I'm told what to say
How to stand and to act
Just to with them
Make a perfect bonding pact
While stepping on me
And most of my thoughts
I've entered a war that
I never should have fought

And one day I'll take arms
And stand in defense
They can't tell me what I'll do
They won't take away my sense
They can't change me from the inside
Or make me their star
For what is on the inside
Makes us what we are

So brothers and sister
Who are looked down upon
We will triumph over darkness
We'll see to the dawn
If fighting all night
Is what will keep us free
Then take arms beside me
And invincible be
