Sunrising

I woke up on Monday morning
With the rebels at the gate.
But of course I wouldn’t listen
to their grievance or complaints.
Felt compelled to overthrow them
Came down hard on everyone.
I said hey (the rising)
Hey (the rising)
Hey (the rising) hey.
People come and people go and
It’s bad lie so you’ve gotta shout.
In all these years come expectations
We’re just kind of warring out.
We just took and kept on taking
Til there was nothing left to give.
I said hey (the rising)
Hey (the rising)
Hey (the rising)
Hey.
People
Come on (hey)
Better get ready (hey)
Be strong (hey)
People
Come on (hey)
Better get ready (hey)
Be strong (hey)
