Rise Up… Rise Up
10.26.2019
Come with me
Come rise above the hatred
Where the knives are meant for butter
And the air is fresh up here
Doesn’t smell of drugs
Or gunpowder flash fear
Come follow me
We’re going to rise above the hatred
We’ll plant seeds for the daisies
Watch them grow
Unlike the dead
Who push them up
From down below
Come on
Come on
Let’s rise above this hatred
Hell is open bordered
But Heaven is pearly gated
Come on
Come on
Come rise above the hatred
When a glance into a mirror
Reflects what you’ve been trained to fear
Rise up
Rise up
Then rise above the hatred
Come on up with me
We’ll rise above the hatred
Blow bubbles
Not bombs
Push the troubles along
Empty words a hollow song
Move on
Move along
We’ll rise above the hatred
Come along with me
Come along
Come on
Come on
Let’s rise above this hatred
Hell is open bordered
But Heaven is pearly gated
Come on
Come on
Come rise above the hatred
When a glance into a mirror
Reflects what you’ve been trained to fear
Rise up
Rise up
Then rise above the hatred
