Rise by Earth Caller Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2015

[Chorus]
Oh no, there’s nowhere to go
We can’t take the bridge
They blocked all the roads
So cold, in this prison; my home
We know that we’re trapped
We just can’t see the walls
Hope? No, it was lost long ago
So we take what we can
And make it our own
Alone, the only way I know
They want me to fail
But I can’t so I won't

[Verse 1]
This just the way it is
The way it’s always been
Fighting each other for their scraps or so it seems
I must break free
But know not how to breach
The walls surrounding me
Are closing in on me
And I can’t fucking breathe
Nor can I even sleep
Must we all suffer just to live on our knees?
I must stand tall
Never accept defeat
The walls they built will fucking crumble for me
[Chorus]
Oh no, there’s nowhere to go
We can’t take the bridge
They blocked all the roads
So cold, in this prison; my home
We know that we’re trapped
We just can’t see the walls
Hope? No, it was lost long ago
So we take what we can
And make it our own
Alone, the only way I know
They want me to fail
But I can’t so I won't

[Verse 2]
Turns out the way it is
You never get to leave
The shit I done and seen
Will always follow me
And every time I sleep
I dream I hear a thousand people scream
It puts the fight in me
I won't go quietly
The people rise with me
We suffered silently
But no longer shall we live and die on our knees
(So I stand tall)
So I stand tall
Never accept defeat
The walls they built will fucking crumble for me
[Bridge]
This how they say
What they want me to be
Turns out my path has already been chosen for me
Yeah, this is how they say
What they want me to be
And they ask me how I feel
How I feel?
I still don’t feel a fucking thing
I still don’t feel a fucking
Thing

[Chorus]
Oh no, there’s nowhere to go
We can’t take the bridge
They blocked all the roads
So cold, in this prison; my home
We know that we’re trapped
We just can’t see the walls
Hope? No, it was lost long ago
So we take what we can
And make it our own
Alone, the only way I know
They want me to fail
But I can’t so I won't
This just the way it is
