Lyrics:

God you say is always the answer

But what is the answer for our cruelty

We punish a life 'til it's life ever after

Ever after the place that we all end up being



O' such is a morn' as this to awaken

Forgotten the hour that was yesterday

With a standing blow to the head of frustration

Divide and we fall have you nothing to say?



Chorus

So let us rise up

Stand and be counted, stand and be counted

On that let's agree

Rise up

Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of futility



Many's the word that's been broken true anger

Lips that are sealed as the hour slips away

Belief is a joke to this lost generation

Building the walls as the mind segregates



But when all is said

The voice that is silent can't be heard



Chorus



For we, we shall overcome... someday



So we bring the head of the ol' palace tribe

For there is the rapture that bleeds out a life

Hand over fist from their pulpit they spew

Liars they'll crumble not knowing the truth



But when all is said

The voice that is silent can't be heard



Chorus

So let us rise up

Stand and be counted, stand and be counted

On that let's agree

Let us rise up

Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of futility

Rise up

Stand and be counted, stand and be counted

On that let's agree

Let us rise up

Dig out the cancer; dig out the cancer of all human greed



For we, we shall overcome...
