From the Ground Up Songtext
von Wildlight

We were born of burning hearts
We were born of burning hearts
As a wave across the land, we are moving, moving
This ain′t no phase, the change these bodies make
And the way they are

Facing forward, shoulder to the stone, telling of movin' it
Takes one step, it takes your voice
It takes your voice saying, "I am not hearing if you are not naming it
I am not stopping if you are not changing it
Here are my hands let′s see what they're makin'"

In the morning, in the rise up
There′s a bridge, from all that′s been
In the dawning, the vines are
Pushing through the pavement


We were born of burning hearts
We are tearing off the reigns
From the ground up we will build it
From the clouds above we'll rain it
From the crowd up we will raise it
From the ground up

You hold the spade to turn new soil
For the coming grace, you hold the plans
And no hands but our hands will lead our children
And all that will feed you is a fierce prayer, is a fierce prayer
Saying, "I am not hearing if you are not naming it
I am not stopping if you are not changing it
Here are my hands, let′s see what they're makin′"

In the morning, in the rise up
There's a bridge, from all that′s been
In the dawning, the vines are
Pushing through the pavement

We were born of burning hearts
We are tearing off the reigns
From the ground up we will build it
From the clouds above we'll rain it
From the crowd up we will raise it
From the ground up


In this life, we see so many things and
Sometimes our heart may start to bleed a bit
I choose this life I'm gonna lead and
I must give my hands
To make it

In the morning, in the rise up
There′s a bridge, from all that′s been
In the dawning, the vines are
Pushing through the pavement

We were born of burning hearts
We are tearing off the reigns
From the ground up we will build it
From the clouds above we'll rain it
From the crowd up we will raise it
From the ground up we will build it
From the clouds above we′ll rain it
From the crowd up we will raise it
From the ground up we will build it
From the clouds above we'll rain it
From the crowd up we will raise it
From the ground up

(We were born with burning hearts)
From the ground up
