Rise Inside Lyrics by Killswitch Engage

Alive or Just Breathing

2002

[Verse 1]
Rise inside
Free your mind
Raise your fist
To signify
We stand in defiance
Of hatred and deception
If I stand alone
I'll fight for you

[Chorus 1]
The time has come to
Make a difference
Why have we forsaken love
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me

[Verse 2]
Embrace what we have
It might be the last time
In this life we will rise (In this life we will rise)
If we find the strength to unify

[Verse 1]
Rise inside
Free your mind
Raise your fist
To signify
We stand in defiance
Of hatred and deception
If I stand alone
I'll fight for you

[Chorus 1]
The time has come to
Make a difference
Why have we forsaken love
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me

[Verse 2]
Embrace what we have
It might be the last time
In this life we will rise (In this life we will rise)
If we find the strength to unify

[Bridge]
Hatred is a weakness
You become the victim
I believe love will overcome

[Chorus 2]
The time has come to
Make a difference
Why have we forsaken one another
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me

[Outro]
The time has come (The time has come)
The time has come (The time has come)
The time has come to rise inside, rise inside
