So many promises   From master to slave   All lies and emptiness   From the cradle to the grave   We don't need words but action   We want it here   We want it now      What do you think they're doing   For you and me   Better save your life from ruin      [Chorus:]   Rise up   Cry out to the nation   Rise up   Break out off your shell   Rise up   TV generation   Rise up   Go out give'em hell   You've got to clean your claws   Don't take no more      Don't have to hide away   From the colour of your skin   And you don't have to bare the cross   And suffer from their sins      Got to believe in something   Though you have faith in nothing   Life's like a bullet to your head   You've got to come out      What's your conclusion   Now do you believe   In a silent revolution      Rise up   Cry out to the nation   Rise up   Break out from your shell   Rise up   TV generation   Rise up   Go out give them hell   Rise up      Don't put your trust in the flames of the flag   Who's gonna wash of he blood form the tracks   When do the lion   Lie down with the lamb   When do we drop down   The guns form our hands   You see we build this world on solid ground   Do you wanna see it all come down      [Chorus]
