Recco, Gimson and Hannah Collins - Rise Up
Let's rise up, rise up
I said rise, rise,
I said rise up, rise up
Come on right up, right up
Let's rise up, rise up
I said rise, rise,
I said rise up, rise up
I mean right up, right up
What do I mean by rise up, whatever
Maybe get your likes up
Get more followers and shine with brightness
More filters to filter the lights inside us
Or do I mean lets rise up together
Maybe let's get violent
Recruit more followers and light some fires
Burn government flyers insight some riots
Yeah, living in Britain
We’re sick of the system and wishing for different
Living without sun no colour existing
The kids go straight to the pub to get pissed in
Next, wipe the lid on a cistern
Roll up a note, slow sniff in an instant
Like the flick of a switch they’re inspired from the high
Say goodbye and goodnight to their bitter existence
Feel a resistance, tripping, eyes glistening
Delivering wisdom, feeling that the life that their living
Is similar to the dealers in the ghetto so they end up in prison
Ah! c'est la vie
Theres more knife crime in London than Tel A'viv
But the drill and the trap lyrics are missing the facts
So the kids in the flats they won’t ever get free
Come on rise up, rise up
I said rise, rise,
Come on rise up, rise up
I mean right up, right up
Let's rise up, rise up
Come on rise, rise,
I said rise up, rise up
I mean right up, right up
Teenage kids out doing creepers
Cuz imagery and marketing made them want sneakers
He stole from Paul and he shotted to Peter
Bait cars, black gloves abusing the speakers
Joyride institutionalised
Trapped in a trap so angry inside
The perverse realm of post existence torture
A waterboarding sorcerer
Surfing the malevolent underworld of chaos
With fake gods who are envied with the hate of
Gossip between the most resentful of people
Who would know less misery if they hadn’t been deceitful
Attempting to answer what dimension your head is in
Perched on a ledge sipping Ayurvedic medicine
Heads of horns, crowns of thorns
Mapping out the suffering in which you were born
In a one man show spouting jokes about karma
If you’re not the lead role in your own drama
You’re a dismal player in somebody else’s
Forgotten at the bottom feeling worthless and helpless
Where harsh reality is skewed by false memories
Or expectations
I met my aborted son in a dream he was 13
I awoke to name my daughter on a mid winters eve
Lucid dreaming, genocide and grieving
Seeing is believing, I just saw some higher beings
I fast for fast healing, I ain’t laughed my last feeling
In this life I’m witnessing as a male human being
I danced with un-loyal loyalists but insecurities spoiled it
They wanted to be loved but their plans were just foiled with
Low self esteem, too much time spent on screens
And a moral pollution that beats reasoned critique
Come on rise up, rise up
I said rise, rise,
Come on rise up, rise up
I mean right up, right up
Let's rise up, rise up
Come on rise, rise,
I said rise up, rise up
I mean right up, right up
What do I mean by rise?
Elevate, meditate, take some advice
Eat right be a little bit nicer
In fact listen up to my trusted advisor
We have got to rise
So we need to elevate our minds
To go higher
Take some advice
Said if you want to rise
Recognise, you can climb
We can reach the top yeah
If we want it bad enough babe
It’s time to rise
It’s time to rise
It’s time to rise
