Raise Your Hands Songtext

Raise Your Hands Songtext
We′ve been here many times still nothing's changed
We take so much more than we give, our minds must be deranged
We can′t continue this way pretending all will be alright
Pretending we will have the answer to the terrors coming in the night
It's not enough to put our faith in solutions not yet done
Our prayers will fall on deaf ears the battle's to be won
Everyone must take their place to stop this endless greed
To use our own abilities to help those most in need
It helps to know what we′re fighting for it helps to keep the dream alive
Take control, stand your ground it′s up to you, take back your lives
Raise your hands, make some noise, stand up for what you think is right
Stand up and add your voice, raise your hands, make some noise
The time is coming fast, it's time to make your choice
So many promises so many lies
So much posturing we′re running out of time
Endless meetings, endless talk
Endless plans are made, it's time to walk the walk
We have the knowledge now to change what we have done
To build a better future to help everyone
So don′t wait 'til tomorrow the damage won′t allow
We need to end the talking take some action now
It helps to know what we're fighting for it helps to keep the dream alive
Take control, stand your ground it's up to you, take back your lives
Raise your hands, make some noise, stand up for what you think is right
Stand up and add your voice, raise your hands, make some noise
The time is coming fast, it′s time to make your choice
It′s really not that hard to do what must be done
The consequences of no action our chances next to none
Decisions must be made now before it gets too late
The futures' in your hands the bloody hands of fate
Raise your hands, raise your hands, raise your hands, raise your hands
All that glitters is not gold false promises are made
They lead to destruction think what could be saved
Chasing dreams of plenty will benefit the few
The seas and mountains will recover if that′s good enough for you
We only have one life to live and you can see it through
To leave a better place is all that we can do
We're just a tiny part a single point in time
Let′s change our aim before we become the end of our line
It helps to know what we're fighting for it helps to keep the dream alive
Take control, stand your ground it′s up to you, take back your lives
Raise your hands, make some noise, stand up for what you think is right
Stand up and add your voice, raise your hands, make some noise
The time is coming fast, it's time to make your choice
We take so much more than we give, our minds must be deranged
We can′t continue this way pretending all will be alright
Pretending we will have the answer to the terrors coming in the night
It's not enough to put our faith in solutions not yet done
Our prayers will fall on deaf ears the battle's to be won
Everyone must take their place to stop this endless greed
To use our own abilities to help those most in need
It helps to know what we′re fighting for it helps to keep the dream alive
Take control, stand your ground it′s up to you, take back your lives
Raise your hands, make some noise, stand up for what you think is right
Stand up and add your voice, raise your hands, make some noise
The time is coming fast, it's time to make your choice
So many promises so many lies
So much posturing we′re running out of time
Endless meetings, endless talk
