Did you ever question any of the things They thought while you were at school? And did you ever question, "Oh my teacher Why do you take me for a fool?" Rise up, you got to rise up, wake up and rise When you're all alone You'll search for love but they'll have none This is the seed that they have sown Don't be afraid, a better place has yet to come And when they won't teach or reach or feed And all they do is leave you deceive you Be true to yourself and save your mind, lesson for the young So now let's fly away into the light of a brand new sun The time has come, rise up, you gotta rise up, wake up and rise We'll meditate, communicate, escalate, don't be late We just can't wait to liberate this human race Go, rise up, you gotta rise up, wake up and rise Don't let them take away your culture Don't let them take away your future, rise up, you got to rise
