Open my eyes and a new day dawns
Stare at the ceiling till my senses make some sense of this
The roar of traffic from the bypass
747 shakes the windows on a flypast
Dirty plates in the kitchen sink
Yesterday's dinner, empty bottles, and a last demand
This cannot stand
I wiped the slate clean, I didn't think twice
Arise, I get a grip of myself
Arise, I can't be anybody else
They'll say you lose, but it's not true if you want to get higher
Arise, don't think about it
I close my ears to the voices that just hold you back
Open my heart to the endless possibilities
I changed the channel from the cynics and the hate
I stepped outside, felt the sun on my face
Arise, I get a grip of myself
Arise, I can't be anybody else
They'll say you lose, but it's not true if you want to get higher
Arise, don't think about it
Arise
Arise
Arise
Arise
I love the smell of the Earth in the springtime
It's all potential, full of promise of what's yet to come
I feel like standing on a hilltop
My arms wide open, hear the crash of every raindrop
In every city, in every street
Up from the cracks grows a flower through the concrete
And from the Thames to the Mersey to the Clyde
I drink to love and no more wasted lives
Arise
Arise
Arise
Arise, I get a grip of myself
Up from heartache, up from doubt
Arise, I can't be anybody else
It's now or never, apply some pressure
They'll say you lose, but it's not true if you want to get higher
Arise, don't think about it
Up from lies, up from fake
Don't think about it
Up from prejudice, up from hate
Don't think about it
Up from lies, up from fake
Don't think about it
Up from prejudice, up from hate
Up from lies, up from fake
Up from prejudice, up from hate
