Look Alive

Listen up, listen up, we are lost and found
These hearts of fire pushed underground, yeah
Times are tough and the world’s falling down
But driving us to a much higher sound where
The light shines and the darkness hides
Outnumbered by the rising tide, hey
Listen up, raise your fist in the air
Shake down the system like you just don’t care
(cause there’s)
Too many wolves in the fields getting paid
(and there’s)
Too many lives just crankin till they dead
Too many motherfuckers just burying their head (look alive)
Look alive, look alive, rise above the bloodshed
Lift it up, lift it up, lift each other high
From out the bloodshed we choose to decry, yeah

The fear is growing but love setting in
The price is heavy but justice wins when
We come together with one voice ... oh
Rise together got no choice... hey
Lift it up, raise your voices high
With rebel songs and hot revolutionary nights
So don’t close your eyes don’t walk away
Don’t waste right now for another day
We are living in darker days
The light always seems dim
But we’re starting to see some rays
When brutality and apathy become commonplace
And the oppositions staring you in the face
It’s time to demonstrate strength in numbers
Raised voices up by the hundreds ... thousands
Against battalions of fascists
Grasping for power
As they devalue our lives before our eyes
And if we don’t try, democracy dies
So look alive
