Rise Up, Pt. 2
What's the matter child of mine, my darling why do you cry
Why you taking on so many burdens, just take your time
Did you stop to smell the roses or did you march in time
To the rhythm of the worldly powers you tried to fight
My friend you can't allow yourself to be occupied
By money, power and fame one day they will all subside
I know you've heard it all before, it's like you've gone back in time
But now I've got a different message for you
Right now I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
Did you notice while your head was down that the world went by
At a million miles per hour, oh how the time does fly
I know you don't feel like you're ready to get back to the grind
But they're waiting for you up there, can't be down all the time
My friend you cannot hold this shame for all of your days
I understand the pain is real when your heart breaks
I know you've felt it all before, it's like you've gone back in time
But now you've got to pick yourself up off
Off the ground, I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
Why you taking on so many burdens, just take your time
Did you stop to smell the roses or did you march in time
To the rhythm of the worldly powers you tried to fight
My friend you can't allow yourself to be occupied
By money, power and fame one day they will all subside
I know you've heard it all before, it's like you've gone back in time
But now I've got a different message for you
Right now I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
Did you notice while your head was down that the world went by
At a million miles per hour, oh how the time does fly
I know you don't feel like you're ready to get back to the grind
But they're waiting for you up there, can't be down all the time
My friend you cannot hold this shame for all of your days
I understand the pain is real when your heart breaks
I know you've felt it all before, it's like you've gone back in time
But now you've got to pick yourself up off
Off the ground, I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up
I'm telling you rise up, rise up, rise up
