  • Together we rise and fall.

  • Best way to get a point across is just walk away.

  • Talk with your friends, woman , child... Show the situation. Show stupidity. People must reject fear. Be brave

  • @svetabozinovic04 braveness isn't the absence of fear, it's the will to go on with fear

  • @LunarKnightRusty Of course, but fear must be cntrolled, not vice versa.Fear leads to false reactions. Situation is so serious, some idiot might ruin many lives just like that. They are people like we, but ruthless...

  • Occupy!

  • whats in your ally way recycling bins or bullet cases?

  • WE WILL RISE! WE ARE NOT SCARED! AND WE WILL LISTEN TO THIS Flobot SONG!

  • Fuckin ill!

  • did someone put a squeeky toy in the background?

  • Listening to this whilst preparing to shout at some Tory cunts in Manchester.

  • With all the protests going on (Occupy Wall Street, etc.), it brought this song back to mind. I'm excited to see people starting to stand up and hoping one comes near me.

  • DEAD ISLAND!!!

  • POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!!!

  • Everyone rise together 

  • Anybody know more music that has lyrics like this? this isnt really my style of music but i really like what theyre talking about.

  • @amkadiego lots of rise against great band,music,and lyrics delivers a message

  • we've gotta start a revolution from our beds

    united for a fucking good world

    yeah!

  • Comment removed

  • 240p? What is this, Africa?

  • I like flobots, but do they ever talk about SPECIFIC issues? legalizing drugs, socialized healthcare, police brutality, war crimes, government corruption, wall street bailouts, corporate lobbyists, etc? Also, you're naive if you think a revolution (peaceful or otherwise) could ever happen in america. It's a first world country, people are so comfortable. Mexico or China on the other hand, it's a possibility. They should really name some names and call people out and not be afraid to swear.

  • @drewnod "same thing" is all specific issues.

    

  • @drewnod Wrong. We're in the middle of a revolution right now. People have already gotten angry if you haven't noticed. Maybe giving 1% of the nation 95% of the wealth was a bad idea.

  • @drewnod American Revolution, Civil war, Civil Right Movement, a few of the violent AND peaceful revolution that happened.

  • Thumbs up if you dont need the lyrics :D

  • Ermm... I like this song ^_^

  • Flobot needs to collaborate with Blue Scholar..

  • If we are going to do anything, we need a leader. Not just the Flobots, but one of us. The reason we cant have the Flobots as a leader, is that they are the preacher, not the controller. If we don't get a real leader, we will get nowhere, nothing will be changed, and our lives will be ruined. Now do we want that to happen? Of course we dont. We need to start somewhere besides just commenting and agreeing on these videos. We need somewhere else that we can group, talk, and understand wat to do.

  • America is NOT a democracy.It is a Republic.

  • @555overlord Not republic... The Roman empire was republic... anybody could be a government official, in america its who ever spends the most money with the ads and what not

  • @codered678 read the US Constitution and Bill of Rights.  The USA was founded as a Constitutional Republic not a democracy where the mob rules. If you read the Federalist Papers you will see how and why the US founded.

  • Democracy has a failsafe against spontaneous revolution, known as "elections". That's why it is better types that rely upon force to maintain the status quo.

    To US citizens who like this song, remember that you have to VOTE. I live in a country where nearly everyone votes (Australia: it's not just your right, it's the law!). But if you guys wanna make a difference, you've gotta vote.

    That's my take on this song, BTW. I reckon it's about voter apathy in America.

  • @jettisoncargo You don't think the polls are changed? Honestly, I don't trust the American people to make the right choice. Just look at music today. Sex, Sex, Sex. Sarah Palin next to be Pres. because she has nice legs.

  • @yoyyoy35 even though i dont trust many people i meet to properly investigate any issue, i disagree with that generalization because im an american and i read up on my politics. btw who said sarah palin is running for presidency?

    i agree that most mainstream music sucks though

  • @TechnologicsCo THink about it? She's the most famous politician in America. Even more than Obama! It's not a fact that she's running, but if I was that popular, hell I'd run.

  • @jettisoncargo Well said my Aussie friend but remember that Democracy is ruled by a mob. "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"

    Benjamin Franklin

  • i deticate this song to my whole city

  • Respond to this video... i love it

  • RON PAUL2012

  • Whenever I give up hope on the world I listen to songs like this so please don't destroy the point of doing so by bringing more conflict to the video.

  • this song is amazing

  • flobots FTW

  • Why Isn't Flobots Heard? Their messages are more than inspirational yet Not many people have heard their songs especially the ones with the messages of what we should do better in this world...Instead we listen to other rappers rap about getting bitches and money. Wow the world is really impressing isn't it?

  • I love the use of violin in this <3

  • @boorednshit I love the use of *the random instrument which looks/ sounds close to a violin* in this <3. (that was not anger, but sarcasm [don't get me wrong :)])

  • @malfunctioninghero It's a fucking Viola, shit bag. Sarcasm or not, you should get your fucking shit together and learn your stringed instrument.

  • @MsSceneDinosaur Wowoowowwooo.. I'm sorry if I insulted you, I was just teasing.. >< sorry..

  • yes

  • For Libya and Wisconsin...together we Rise...

  • I clicked this one instead of Vevo. They Suck.

  • talking is a big part of it. people need to educate themselves then talk about what they know.

    you do need to organize. people stand stronger together.

    you need to be very patient as well, be calm and listen. understand your opponent, then do tell them the truth you know to change their minds.

    staying calm will help to keep them calm and it all will go over better.

    do not fight physically, be peaceful. dont be what you hate.

    if theres going to be a revolution, it must be non violent.

  • @fairfaerie you need to be in the top rated comments so everyone can read this

  • @fairfaerie More than likely, it will be violent. Nowadays, peaceful protests get us nowhere.

  • @fairfaerie

    Screw that, I say we start a riot.

  • @NMEGAXC im with u

    

  • @NMEGAXC Can we use the 3DG song to go with it?

  • @NMEGAXC start a riot start a war? could you say that you whould give your life for a useless cause? theres more to live than vengance. i infer that you want to be powerfull well war wont bring people together whats more powerfull a contry with enemies or with more people more knowlege, more power. so if you say that words cant change people why argue with words if you think that they are useless.

  • @mrcookietotherescue

    Actions speak louder than words. Filing a formal complaint will not get a point across.

  • @fairfaerie We should defend ourselves with violence, but only defend.

  • Why have i never heard them on the RAdio?????

  • @WesWimbo FUCK THE RADIO!!

  • @WesWimbo FUCK THE RADIO!!!

  • @WesWimbo FUCK THE RADIO!!!

  • i just keep it in mind. lets not start an organization. lets start our freedom. because were not gona get it from the government. the government is an organiztion of assholes. lets stop this organized madness, and start our freedom, for if we start an organiztion, we would be branding ourselves. how can we have freedom with a title? lets be our own people, and just love eachother. thats what this world is missing..... lets be one, but also be free.

  • Flo-Frickin-Bots :)

  • This song just made something in my pants rise.

  • Why when your against something would you try to stand out with an armband? Why not stay hidden and form together?

  • @MrPowerBower to show that they aren't afraid to be open about what they think.

    but i under stand what your talking about go underground, but Revolutions use open fighting, resistance groups use gureilla tactics and go underground.

  • the black armband signifies that your tired or the inhumanity in the world this link should explain it go to america will be . org without the spaces lol

  • Comment removed

  • We the people did not want war.

  • 9/11 truth will set us free!!!!

    9/11 was an inside job

    -knowledge is power

  • um...yeahh. i just like this song.

  • i dislike how all of you people are talking about these things as if you're actually going to do something about it. how bout, instead of sitting on ur lazy asses posting a comment on youtube, you actually get up and do something. hey at least im honest in knowing that i'm not gonna be doing anything any time soon...

  • @sephiroth1018 maybe in the off time that they aren't doing something, they come to spread the word and get followers and to make people aware to their cause. The next day, they get up and start it again. Hey, at least I'm honest, right?

  • @Erolin2 Heh dude the whole point of civilian rebellion's power is that we are collected together as one, each single one of us is invisible and the more we stay that way, the more it seems EVERY civillian is with us (which ideally they would, but we know they won't). Your invisibility is your main weapon and marking yourself defeats the purpose bro. Though I understand and appreciate your wish for all of us to unite visibly. We're all united by heart man, through a loving indistinction. :D

  • from the words of a great man "those who look only to the past and present are surely to miss the future", our time is now stand, rebel, RISE

  • 9 people dont rise

  • @smopetc hahah. i'll admit, i fuckin hate when people do this but i laughed at how random it was. so you don't get hate mail. :D

  • saw the singer when i was in denver couple years back said his stuff was where i wish all rap was heading,exchanged words and went on, next year handlebars became a hit.

  • that scratch high pitch sound is that part of the song?

  • @AdmiralLawlrus yea its when there scratching the records lolz XD

  • No government will ever work. One system in control can't work. Its all going to fall into a million pieces soon enough. Nothing lasts forever.

  • i really hope these rants on the government actually changes anything if it doesnt change people's minds at all then we arent going to fix anything

  • whithout US the government is nothing so WE are really the government think about OUR number compared to the government. its US that THEY should be listning to. BTW GUYS GOTTA LUV DIS SONG IT DEFINATLY BRING OUT UR REBELIOUSE SIDE. TRY TYPING WHILE LISTNIN TO SONG IT RLY MAKES U THINK WHO IS RLY IN CHARGE HERE.

    THINK ABOUT IT

  • mosh-eminem thats all i got to say ahaha...RISEEE!!!

  • ~Underground Youtube Decrees~

    I Thou shalt not make fucking retarded Justin Bieber Jokes

    II Thou shalt not comment on the dislike bar

    III Thou shalt not combine the first two decrees EVER.

    IV Thou shalt stay on topic in the comment boxes

    V Thou shalt spread word of the decrees

    ~Underground Youtube Decrees~

    Disobeying the decrees will doom you to a Youtube afterlife filled with bad rap music and male enhancement advertisements.

  • we need change we need to give kids and felons the right to vote. we need a government not by the Moriarty but by the people. ware the Moriarty rules but the minority can live with out fear. we need a government for the people by the people and of the people, not the clean adults

  • Bankaikun has it right. WE are the government. So when we look for who to blame we have to look no further than the mirror. Tell me... when you look in the mirror, do you fear yourself?

  • @Smullet90

    An excellent comment. It really gives one something to think about.

  • Rulers have as much power as the ruled give them.

  • this song means a lot, more than people realize it.

  • Put you political opiniated minds to ease, and listen to the music.

  • @MisterRawgerz 4 real! haha we can all argue but chill and ease ur mind to the soothin music please.

  • @MisterRawgerz I must say I agree with you. I don't particularly agree with the band's political ideas, and I'm not even a big fan of the music, but isn't that what the "back" button was made for? lol

  • @MisterRawgerz

    That sort of flies in the face of the point of the music.

  • Why can you ppl just listen to the music and not hate on eachother >:l

  • Remember remember the 5th of November

  • its 2012 that ppl shud be worried about its 2013-2014, this year is when NAU(North American Unoin) will start forming. Its a country that combines mexico USA and canada. go research it on google or youtube. bush got us into this whole

  • VV lmao i just realized i rhymed VV

  • we may feel like we are pawns in a massive chess game between the 'powers that be' but i believe that we are the powers that be, and that we need not be played so long as we have the courage the determination the will and the motivation to learn to find out, and to do what is neccesary for change its no use screaming abbout change when youre not willing to sacrifice anything (especially time) for it and change will not come in a parade it will not be fun, it will come from the barrel of a gun

  • what's in your alleyway, recycle bins or bullet cases?

    <3

  • The thing I love most about this song, is how it seems to bring people together, y'know what I mean. Like, go to almost any other song on youtube and you have people fighting and shit, hasn't gotten this song yet though, haha.

    Only in a Flobots song, eh?

  • Fuck "the man". Why have we all involuntarily been inducted into this world filled with people of lower standards intelligence and morals, giving US, the people orders. Its our job to Rise Together and say something for ourselves

  • I love this. This really makes you see the big picture..

  • im just learning to english. is the way you pronounce the name of the band

    flow-bots

    flaw-bots

  • @tbenoit07

    Flow-bots

  • 9 ppl hate this sond :0

  • let's rise together no war people we're brothers let's RISE!!!

  • bankaikun94 ~ That is the most patriotic thing I've read in a VERY long time. You'd make our nations Forefathers very proud._ to some others_ We are "We The People". If your angry, you have a voice in this great system. I hope you're using it in a legal manner that brings credibility to your beliefs. As shown by many a successfull activist, throughout our history.

  • @dmtcall the sad thing is...republicans and the war mongerers call us anti american and anti patriotic when we say we dont support the troops in iraq!!!....but why wold i support and unjsutified war????? same goes for vietnam

  • TOGETHER WE RISE

  • The thing most of you dont see is that in 2012, the world is not ending... its changing, seeing how the government is controlling things.... it can only get worst my friends, they started it and i am spreading it... wear a black cloth armrband aroud your right or left arm, i dont care how you make it or what you make it out of, it goes to a sign for people... to know that your in on the rebelion, join me brothers and sisters... of countless religions and ideologies... skin colors and thoughts...

  • @Erolin2 thanks man, a love too see people who actually know what they're talking about, and pan to do something about it

  • @Erolin2 I'm in. :)

  • @Erolin2 You can't blame everything on the goverment. Remember like 80% of Americans are retarded as all hell.

  • @Erolin2 its 2012 that ppl shud be worried about its 2013-2014, this year is when NAU(North American Unoin) will start forming. Its a country that combines mexico USA and canada. go research it on google or youtube. bush got us into this whole

  • @Erolin2 Rofl. Rebellion. What is this, Middle School?

  • @bandanaface Typical newfaggot right here.

  • @Erolin2 You realize that that fucking rumor only went around because the Mayan calender ends at 2010, right?

  • @Erolin2

    :) You got it.That's why we're so weak and vulnerable, we're not willing to LIVE with or UNDERSTAND each other. So I'll join you.No charge.;)

  • @Erolin2 great idea...i hope it works though

  • @Erolin2

    true dat!

    Stand up and fight against the serpent!

  • @Erolin2 suuuuurrrreee

  • @Erolin2 hmmm i would but how do i know that your not the government and as soon as you get enough people with black cloth around their arms you gather them up and kill em as to show no weakness to the thought of rebellion...

  • @kila58 we would have done nothing wrong just by wearing black on our arms, to kill us we would have to do something to GET killed first,

  • @Erolin2 Mine will have a red star on it too

  • @Erolin2 right lets tag ourselves so they know who to kill off first...

  • @Erolin2

    If you only knew how to spell. Your a fucktard. Most of us don't believe the world is going to end in 2012, we accept fate for what it is. It will happen how it happens and fags that got high and rubbed one out aren't going to change this with a bunch or "black" arm bands. Get laid your tard.

  • @moghedien22 You are equally illiterate. Your = possession, not "You are". Before you call someone on their inability to string together a sentence, it would help to have that ability yourself.

    Do you know what I see here? I see a bunch of kids talking of revolution and rebellion and spouting stupid bullshit they know nothing about. None of you are part of any revolution; none of you have done anything.

    Stand up. Organize people. You want to do something? Then do something.

  • @TKZ100 I would like this 100 times if I could, just so it would be read more.

  • @TKZ100 unlike most ppl i know about 300 ppl that r doing somthing instead of just tlkin im not in anyway saying im part of it but there is somthing happaning right now thats starting arevolution

  • @TKZ100 inorite this isn't about revolution at all it's more about working together to form a better world to live in/community

  • @TKZ100 who the fuck are u saying what the flobots can sing about when u probally cant sing about anything better and its a song why the fuck do u care what they sing about? they sound good so y say anything u fucking hater

  • @TKZ100 are you talking about the song or the comments?

  • @TKZ100 Very well put

  • @TKZ100 amen

  • @TKZ100 both of you grammar police or sumthin?

    yea, i said sumthin.

  • @moghedien22 This is some what of a family so stop SWEARING!

  • @moghedien22 Pathetic.

  • @Erolin2 What does the color black represent? Any color should suffice. Simply wearing armbands aren't going to change anything, it will take a strong leader to motivate people to push beyond what is considered right.

  • @Erolin2 why a black band? We should fly any color band sounds like your telling us what to do

  • @Erolin2 amen brother

  • @Erolin2

    Why would you WANT people to know you're in the rebellion? Isn't that counter-productive? This is what the Nazis did to identify their enemies.

  • @Erolin2 Who started the black armband? Flobots?

  • DON'T LET APATHY POLICE THE POPULACE

  • DON'T LET APATHY POLICE THE POPULACE

  • what pawr.

  • V for Vendetta a perfect example of what our nation is becoming. A corrupt world, dictated controlled limited, and fooled by.

  • those people aren't the government! WE are the government! We shouldnt fear them! They should fear US! Because WE ARE THE GOVERNMENT! WE ARE THE LAW! WE ARE THE COUNTRY! WE SHOULD BE IN CONTROL!

    WE ARE THE NATION, THE WORLD, THE PEOPLE OF FREEDOM!

  • @bankaikun94 you're retarded. Sure, motivational speech is good. But if you think about what you're saying, you sound like an idiot. Really? All the people on youtube are the nation, the world? Really? Shut up.

  • @BreakerBreaker09 you think too hard. I'm not being specific(youtubers). I'm speaking in general.

  • @bankaikun94 lol I do think too hard. And that day I was just angry at the world for some reason o~O lol it actually does sound pretty good

  • @bankaikun94 iight you go do that, i'll just chill here and stock up on foods and firearms because either way ran by monsters or by people we are going to be attacked.

  • @bankaikun94 AMEN!

  • @bankaikun94 That's true, but they're the ones with the guns and the money and the "high seat" in it all.. unfortunately.

  • @TorturedSorrow Tru they have that but we have the right to carry guns as well if enough of the country get together it can rise we also have the will to not back down

  • @Corral091 Yeah, but who 'gave' us that right? The corrupted government. Look what happened to Sean Bell. They still keep us in check bro.. but yeah, hopefully, one day.

    Viva La Revolution! :)

  • @bankaikun94 Your gay.

  • @bankaikun94 You realize you're saying America should rule the world, correct?

    Because then America would be even more of a douche than when Bush was here.

  • @bankaikun94

    lol thanks for stating the obvious....easier said than done.

  • @bankaikun94 Agreed. They serve us. Not the other way around!

  • @bankaikun94 Sorry to tell you but the ELITE is the government and law of this earth, But things can change if people get educated on what is currently happening and realize that they are nothing but slaves and wake up from this craze that they call "LIFE". But before that people have to Stop being so greedy and selfish.

  • @bankaikun94 I agree. I just fear that if "the people" take control it could go realy bad or realy good.And if it goes good, how long untill it goes bad?How long until people from "the people" start being corrupt,Anyway, just a thought. Flobots are awesome. See ya.

  • @yonama2 true enough, it's a constant vicious cycle, period.

  • "People look up to these politicians - for the answers, but they are just fiction - a clever story made to seem real - but they don't understand the pain we feel - we are the only ones who can make real change - there promises will just fade away - " Voice of the People 2010

  • @bankaikun94 I LUV THAT! so true it makes me sad to think that we dont have ontrol yet tho

  • @bankaikun94 GIVE ANON THE RIGHTS

  • @bankaikun94 actually we are just the people to them...the constitution doesn't mean shit to anyone now-a-days.

  • @bankaikun94 So, anyone who works for a goverment job doesn't matter is what you are saying? Don't forget that the people who are working on jobs like that are the reason you even have rights in the first place genius.
