Lyrics
Well, we're in deep water, can't you see?
The whole country's crumbling, can't let it be.
Every step we take, it's a backward dance,
Health care fading, losing our chance.
They're attacking our freedom, tearing down the walls,
Knowledge is slipping, as the silence calls.
We've got to stand up, can't sit back and wait,
Before it's too late--it's a matter of fate.
[Chorus]
Oh, big trouble's coming, can't ignore the sound,
Democracy's lost when we're scared to stand our ground.
The dark clouds gather, and the truth slips away,
This is the time, gotta rise up today.
[Verse 2]
Dictators whisper sweet lies in the night,
While they hide their agenda, twisting what's right.
Education crumbling, can't you see the cost?
Innocence fading, our past is lost.
So don't look away, don't you dare pretend,
The fight ain't over; we gotta amend.
You have the power to change what's wrong,
Together we can be the voices, strong.
[Chorus]
Oh, big trouble's coming, can't ignore the sound,
Democracy's lost when we're scared to stand our ground.
The dark clouds gather, and the truth slips away,
This is the time, gotta rise up today.
[Bridge]
It's a systematic attack, can't you hear the cries?
We'll rise like a phoenix, spread our wings and defy.
Unity and courage, that's what we need,
To plant a new future, let's sow the right seed.
[Verse 3]
The streets are calling, can you hear the beat?
We won't hide our faces, we won't admit defeat.
This nation needs heroes, ready to fight,
For freedom and justice, let's set it right.
So look in your heart, and join the call,
Together we'll stand or we'll certainly fall.
Don't let the shadows take away our light,
It's our time to shine, it's our time to unite.
[Chorus]
Oh, big trouble's coming, can't ignore the sound,
Democracy's lost when we're scared to stand our ground.
The dark clouds gather, and the truth slips away,
This is the time, gotta rise up today.
[Outro]
So take up the banner, and raise it high,
Together we'll fight, we'll reach for the sky.
Big trouble's coming, but we've got the might,
To bring back the dawn, and reclaim our right.
