When the skies seem to be falling and darkness descends upon the horizon
Time and hope has a plan for our land
And that goal is to rise again
To rise above all the despair
To rise above the falling bricks and molten steel
Those places once our homes
Now all but ash burning in the winter gale
We are the soldier of purpose and guardians of truth
And we will fight for those things we love so dear
We will fight for our mothers
We will fight for our fathers and sisters and brothers
When bombs fall we rise up
When they occupy our cities we rise up
When missiles fly we rise up
It may not be today it may not be tomorrow
Someday we will walk back onto our land victorious
Someday we will plant trees and water them not with our tears but with rain coming from the clouds in righteous skies so resist
Resist those that blindly follow wicked orders
Resist resist the capacity of cold-hearted men and pray for their souls for they do not know what they do
We are all gifts from the world and each other
We are neighbors not separated by borders but connect by an invisible force a light that shines ever so bright in each and every one of our hearts
So say it loud and say it clear
