one angry mother (rise up) - abu jibran lyrics

Loading...

please forgive us mother
for we know not what we do
storms on the horizon
they are coming into view

shall we wait until the seas rise? til the tempest
starts to brew?
sing to us a new song when the
sky’s no longer blue.

can you help us mother?
we know not what to think
we quarrel about lost profits
with nature on the brink.

however will we build new castles
when our sh-r-lines start to sink
writing children’s stories
with disappearing ink.

why are you crying mother?
we can’t heed your behest
carelessly we suckle
‘round that dagger in your breast.

watch us gasp for our survival
you decide to turn the page
munchhausen syndrome by proxy
a subtle poison that we can’t gauge

you are one angry mother
our fields as dry as bone
and m-sses cross lost borders
hunger from the seeds we’ve sown

“a million hopes with every flower— abu jibran

nothing grows within this salt water
a final bargaining to cheat death
and oceans from your teardrops
they fill our lungs ’til our last breath

please awake us, mother,
from a nightmare dark and true, deep
in the eleventh hour…
you don’t die, we do…

we don’t need new faces for terror
mirrors shine on our enemy
and so with mercury rising…
to live … so must we.

(countdown from 11th hour…)

who will rise up?
we’re gonna feel rain until the sun comes shining through
who will rise up?
love is a hurricane, a force upon the ocean blue
majestic mighty peaks surround you and
rivers wash the world around to
start today brand new.
rise up

we will rise up – the clouds are parting now, we step into the shining sun
we will rise up – a past to disavow, a second chance for everyone
within a courage lies a power
a million hopes with every flower
a new day has begun.
rise up
