Lyrics of 'The Uprise' by Famous Last Words

And we’ve been set free
From the grip of isolation
From the torment of corrupt
And immoral sovereignty
They brought us peace at
At a price so unforgiving
So we commend their selfless deeds.
Cause now we’re finally living

We won’t let go. No.
And we will stand up,
Round up everyone that we know.
And we will gather young and old
To fight this war.
They gave us hope
So we’ll stand proud cast out
Hatred from our homes
We will never let go.

They fell as they chocked
On their own words.
Our heroes put them all to shame
In their places
Cowering in disgrace
You read the stories
Through our scars
These wounds will dictate who we are
No more

Break out of this implacable, ruthless hold
Eager to live so we’ll finally take control
Enough of the despicable, savage shit
Malevolent, it’s time to stand up and fight this.
We hold our homes
And we’ll destroy the evil
We won’t let go, no

We won’t let go. No.
And we will stand up,
Round up everyone that we know.
And we will gather young and old
To fight this war.
They gave us hope
So we’ll stand proud cast out
Hatred from our homes
We will never let go.

Dear heroes,
Before you arrived you we sad and afraid
We thank you for your sacrifice
Your deaths won’t be in vein
After the torture and pain that we had to undergo
We want you all to know…

They can break our bones
They can beat us, whip us, throw stones
But they can’t break our souls.
They can try, but they’ll be unable
To have our lives, our existence and our freedom.
We won’t back down
And we’ll never be defeated.
We will rise

We won’t let go. No.
And we will stand up,
Round up everyone that we know.
And we will gather young and old
To fight this war.
They gave us hope
So we’ll stand proud cast out
Hatred from our homes
We will never let go.
The devoted and strong
Will always live on
