Lyrics

“Rise Up”

Got the weight of the world
Fallin’ down on me
Looks of desperation
In faces I see

We’re runnin’ low on wise men
Trouble everywhere
Sometimes you take the next step
When you can’t see the stairs

(Chorus)
You know we gotta Rise Up!
And Shine, shine, shine
We gotta love one another, love one another,
While we’ve still got time

I’ll never be a rich man,
But all I have is yours.
It’s hard to love your neighbor,
When you hide behind locked doors.

(Chorus)
You know we gotta Rise Up!
And Shine, shine, shine
We gotta love one another, love one another,

(Bridge)
I feel it crushin’ me.
I see it crushin’ you.
The weight is grindin’ us down.
It’s time we rise and shine and turn it around…

(Chorus)
You know we gotta Rise Up!
And Shine, shine, shine
We gotta love one another, love one another,
You know we gotta Rise Up!
And Shine, shine, shine
We gotta love one another, love one another,
While we’ve still got time
