Sitting Dove - Rise (Remix)

Rise
Rise
Rise
It's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (It's time to rise)

So sick everybody always saying they're sorry
So what we've all done wrong, behaved belligerently
We've indulged can't slip the grasp of our depravity
We were born into this cesspool for our sins I think
We worship Hollywood, at least effectively
We have our Faith yet still sway with the wand of the beast
Can't help but watch the chosen lappin' up that lavish feast
Of each and every flavor of taut and supple virgin meat
Sugar from the south, spices straight from from the East
The doctor stands in wait to open up the pharmacy
At his majesty's request the pleasure of the earthly king
The subjects split the assets quietly behind the scenes
If the devil don't exist, I must be living in a dream
I must have died and this is Hell, 'cause nothing's as it seems
It's a living, breathing nightmare, it gets worse the more you think
We don't have time to live our lives in lame apologies

If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (It's time to rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (It's time to rise)

America is history it's crystal clear to see
Or maybe it was never more than figment of a dream
Today seems less a nation more a tool of the elite
On the brink of revolution you can feel it in the streets
A rising hateful vibe that seems to beg for blood-letting
They've played us against each other, slice-and-dicing everything
To protect their precious petrodollar until their brand new scheme
Will it be carbon credits or a global pandemic
Ebola, ISIS, climate change, the market crashing
Russia on the march, Kim Jong Un gets testy
An alien invasion, racial riots in the streets
You can bet your bottom dollar it'll be something
If they need to make us bow down to extreme authority
We've been well-prepared all that by Hollywood wizardry
How many movies about a deadly outbreak of disease
Movies about those Russians actin' exploitatively
And that ever-present terror rising in the Middle East
All those alien invaders occupying silver screens
When the market falls there is no cinematic need
Good folks start to panic 'cause they're losing money
If it keeps on going down, they could be left with nothing
So they sell, sell, sell, just trying to keep a little piece
The elite smile even bigger as they keep on buying
In the end the rich get richer while the rest again get squeezed

If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (Rise)
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise (It's time to rise)

All these things I'm talkin' about are hidden in plain sight
All you gotta do is stop, seek, really open your eyes
But that really does get tricky, there's war for your mind
'Guess you could even say there's that there's a war on your mind
Stealth war working emotion that's elusive to define
Psyops on our senses that suspend all sense of time
Spirits drown in sixth sense overload, lobotomized
Caged by crudely crafted custom coffins of our own device
Unless we move to alter course this tide will not subside
God give me a million soldiers and just one-tenth of the time
Spent on the distractions this sick system has supplied
The media put place to implement the grand design
Our entertainment's long been institutionalized
All corporatized, coliseum spectacles ritualized
Those smiling front folks know their ridicule distracts from lies
High time to head uptown and to the outskirts take a ride

If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise
High time to head uptown and to the outskirts take a ride
To the countryside estates where they cavort, confide, and hide
If you wannabe a warrior, now it's time to ride
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise
High time to head uptown and to the outskirts take a ride
To the countryside estates where they cavort, confide, and hide
If you wannabe a warrior, now it's time to ride
If you call yourself a soldier, now it's time to rise
High time to head uptown and to the outskirts take a ride
To the countryside estates where they cavort, confide, and hide
If you wannabe a warrior, now it's time to ride (Ri-ise)
Rise
Rise
Rise
