Rise Up! Lyrics by Bobby Conn

Rise Up!

0

The word is out on the street
Caesar's house is growing weak
And all his generals are scared so you better be prepared
He gave the order to his pigs
Jail the men and starve the kids
And I can't help you baby when the empire falls
Things look good in Babylon, yeah the rich still get it on
But now they gotta build up a fence
To protect their decadence
Every year they build it higher
Thеir necks are tighter in thе wire
And I can't help you baby when the empire falls
You wonder what went wrong
Why can't we just get along?
Their televisions feed you lies
Market force alibis
Every hour the class divide
Pushes us towards genocide
And I can't help you baby when the empire falls
I don't mean to frighten you but
Baby, what you gonna do?
Pretty soon now you gotta choose
Bet to win or you're surely gonna lose
'Cause a winning smile ain't no defense
If you're sitting on the fence
And I can't help you baby when the empire falls
I know the plan for you
And there's nothing, child, that I can do
Jesus! He came back
Jesus! High on crack
Jesus! Threw him in jail
Jesus! Can't afford the bail
Yeah, the man is strong
That's the reason for this song
And I can't help you baby when the empire falls
Rise up! It's your only chance
Rise up! It's your only chance
'Cause I can't help you baby when the empire falls
