I’m Gonna Rise Up Lyrics

Can you tell me was it worth it
Sellin souls just
To get ahead

Can tell me was it worth it
All the friends you left for dead

This time we're not gonna take it
Cause we've had it
Up to here

This time we're not gonna take it
Again

I don't need a gun
Cause bullets they don't hurt no more

No I'm not gonna run
Cause this voice is sharper than your sword

Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up

Can you tell me is it workin
All the hurtin
For just one percent
Well you've got 99 big problems
That won't end

Look around so you remember
What your world was like
Before we came

You're chapters comin to a close
And ours begins

Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up

Look around so you remember
What your world was like
Before we came

Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up
Gonna rise up

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
