Gothic Americana Music

RISE

RISE

Oh, hear me children, you are named
To be the keepers of the flame
But guard your light with careful hands
And know exactly where you stand

When lost inside the darkest hours
You must dig deep to find your power
With purpose, forge a path that’s new
The old way is not meant for you

CHORUS
Rise, rise,
Look to the Eastern skies
The day has dawned to rise

Oh, fear not children, build upon
The strength that lets you carry on
The winds of change will blow again
You must steel your resolve til then

In times like these, you must be bold
Allow your courage to unfold
With patience, heed the voice inside
It’s always there to be your guide

CHORUS
Rise, rise,
Look to the Eastern skies
The day has come

BRIDGE
When the journey feels an uphill battle
And the chances are but slim to none
Every forward step that you can travel
Leads you onwards to another one
