We Will Rise
Burn the forest
Profit and gain
Spill the blood
The innocent the sane
Who lit the match?
Who cranked the chainsaw?
Leaders of the world
Opened up the door
In the name of god
We can take it all
The Gold the Tin
Aluminium Iron Ore
Cultures lost
For the sake of greed
Wiped the slate clean
Of what's gone before
Living for today
Fuck tomorrow
Don't give a shit
About our children's sorrows
The world won't take it
Whippin' up a storm
We are the scarecrow ghosts
That protect the corn
We Will Rise
Retrograde
Reductionist
Smash the beauty
With your fist
Cut off your nose
To spite your face
What you gotta rocket ship
Blast you into space
Cut out the lungs
Of our mother earth
You're actions now
Only make things worse
The air we breathe
Taken tree by tree
It's our own life's blood
Can't you see?
Living for today
Fuck tomorrow
Don't give a shit
About our children's sorrows
The world won't take it
Whippin' up a storm
We are the scarecrow ghosts
That protect the corn
We Will Rise
From These Ashes
This Blackened Earth
Where we both stand
Flowed a River
That fed the land
This Blackened Earth
Let's make a stand
Be the river
Heal this land
This Blackened Earth
Where we both stand
Don't want to be the ghost
That haunts this land
Our Fate
Is not in your hands
We will rise
Like a phoenix from the sand
We Will Rise
From These Ashes
We will rise
United in our stand for all mankind
Profit and gain
Spill the blood
The innocent the sane
Who lit the match?
Who cranked the chainsaw?
Leaders of the world
Opened up the door
In the name of god
We can take it all
The Gold the Tin
Aluminium Iron Ore
Cultures lost
For the sake of greed
Wiped the slate clean
Of what's gone before
Living for today
Fuck tomorrow
Don't give a shit
About our children's sorrows
The world won't take it
Whippin' up a storm
We are the scarecrow ghosts
That protect the corn
We Will Rise
Retrograde
Reductionist
Smash the beauty
With your fist
Cut off your nose
To spite your face
What you gotta rocket ship
Blast you into space
Cut out the lungs
Of our mother earth
You're actions now
Only make things worse
The air we breathe
Taken tree by tree
It's our own life's blood
Can't you see?
Living for today
Fuck tomorrow
Don't give a shit
About our children's sorrows
The world won't take it
Whippin' up a storm
We are the scarecrow ghosts
That protect the corn
We Will Rise
From These Ashes
This Blackened Earth
Where we both stand
Flowed a River
That fed the land
This Blackened Earth
Let's make a stand
Be the river
Heal this land
This Blackened Earth
Where we both stand
Don't want to be the ghost
That haunts this land
Our Fate
Is not in your hands
We will rise
Like a phoenix from the sand
We Will Rise
From These Ashes
We will rise
United in our stand for all mankind
