"RISE UP" LYRICS:

"I regard myself as a soldier...a soldier of peace." - Ghandi

Rise Up
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. They are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. That among these are life, liberty...the pursuit of happiness." - The Declaration of Independence

Lookin' at millions under a circus tent
Watchin' a jackass chase a dumb pachyderm
Oh what a show!
Tappin' on any shoulder that I can find
Of anyone on there who might change their mind
It's time to go.
To the real world outside with those pirate ships
The drunken sailors with dirty lips
That rule the night
Shoutin' don't be afraid of those wicked men
There's more of us than there are of them
Come join the fight!

Rise up and be counted
Take your part in the solution
Linking arm in arm, to arms, to arms
Lower your guns and raise your voices
Join the peaceful revolution
Shout I'm mad as hell
and I will ring the bell of freedom

Ride with me from Boston to Phili to LA
With reason come marching
With knowledge come drumming
Let everyone hear you
Each soul that is near you
The British are coming! the British are coming!

We built a house of sticks a hall of parlor tricks
But we blame it all on our politics
Oh what a shame!
Truth is the cancer ain't just in the head
Half the body's nearly dead
We're all to blame
Time to pledge no more standing on one thin leg
Lack of principle's a powder-keg
And we can't wait
If we just say what we mean mean what we say
Take back the power we gave away
It's not too late - Grab your tea and follow me

Rise up and be counted
Take your part in the solution
Linking arm in arm with words as arms
Lower your guns and raise your voices
Join the peaceful revolution
Have you an ear to hear, an eye that sees us
We come in the Spirit of Martin, of Ghandi, of Jesus
Holding fast to the words with the power that frees us
Rise up. Make your choices
Choose the peaceful revolution
Sell what you have to sell so the devil can tell
Then let them raise their hell
And we will ring the bell of freedom
The bell of freedom
The bell of freedom

Special shout out to KRISTA BRANCH. I AM AMERICA and REMEMBER WHO WE ARE, great songs!

[TheSugarcube2]

Hahaha! I'm just looking at all the rude comments on here and here it is 2012! We pulled off the biggest election coup in the history of the House of Representatives and now we will take back the senate and the white house in November 2012! Read it and weep libs!!

[nessesaryschoolthing]

Don't you just love having the declaration of independence yelled at you obnoxiously? That's what I love about the Tea Party, and this song.

[clwgirl510]

I suppose the Tea Party protestor at 2:13 is also a racist...

[clwgirl510]

1:37 Herman Cain!!! :)

[Breathor]

@LiamMacSuibhne "Glenn Beck??? A sad, twisted, delusional, hate-inciting supremacist - the only Nazi in town is Beck himself." - Please, tell me how you got that conclusion, give me a clip of him being this so called "Nazi supremacist"

[DONGOE]

Get the scum out of Washington !!!!

[LiamMacSuibhne]

what a horrendous, awful, woeful lyric coupled with a cheesy, cliched guitar riff.

But the lyrics...my god in heaven. Embarrassing.

As for the proposed 'message' in this video...jesus. Its laughable.

Glenn Beck??? A sad, twisted, delusional, hate-inciting supremacist - the only Nazi in town is Beck himself.

This staged effort of a video is hysterical. Obama must be wetting himself with laughter.

Go 'Bama.

See you here in a few weeks.

[ColleenLass]

Jeremy,

Are you considering performing at the large patriot rally in Kansas city Sept 29 thru Oct 2ND?

What a great asset you would be! It is called the Tea Party Jamboree. Going to be huge.

[greatbig47]

@JCJ77 and not a good cross...not good at all. I'm npt sure who you've insulted more...Merle or INXS!

[greatbig47]

I regard myself as a soldier for selling out by creating ear offensive music that's about as canned and bubble-gummy as my Chevy Truck stuck in Apple Pie at Grandmas. Please, Jeremy...Your sucking up air from real musicians....please...stop.WOW that's bad.
