VERSE 1:
We’ve been down for too long, yeah, we've taken all the blows,
They say we're free, but they chain us with their lies.
Politicians talk big, but it’s only a show,
It’s time to stand, let the truth arise.
CHORUS:
Rise from the dust, let's tear their walls down,
Voices of the people will bring ‘em to the ground.
No more lies, no more disguise,
Rise from the dust, it's time for our rise.
VERSE 2:
They think they can break us, but they don’t know our strength,
We’re the heartbeat of this land, the soul of its song.
Together we march, no matter the length,
In unity we stand, it’s where we belong.
CHORUS:
Rise from the dust, let's tear their walls down,
Voices of the people will bring ‘em to the ground.
No more lies, no more disguise,
Rise from the dust, it's time for our rise.
BRIDGE:
From the fields and the factories, the mountains to the sea,
We carry the fire of liberty.
They can try to silence us, but they’ll never succeed,
Our spirit’s unbroken, and we will be free.
CHORUS:
Rise from the dust, let's tear their walls down,
Voices of the people will bring ‘em to the ground.
No more lies, no more disguise,
Rise from the dust, it's time for our rise.
OUTRO:
Raise your fists, let the freedom bells ring,
We’re reclaiming our land, every voice will sing.
Rise from the dust, together we stand,
Against the tyranny, hand in hand.
