BLACK FLAG

- Rise Above Lyrics

jealous cowards try to control. rise above. we're gonna rise above. they distort what we say. rise above. we're gonna rise above. try and stop what we do. rise above, when they can't do it themselves. we are tired of your abuse. try to stop us, it's no use. society's arms of control. rise above. we're gonna rise above. think they're smart. can't think for themselves. rise above. we're gonna rise above. laugh at us behind our backs. i find satisfaction in what they lack. we are tired of your abuse. try to stop us, it's no use. we are born with a chance. rise above. we're gonna rise above. i am gonna have my chance. rise above. we're gonna rise above. we are tired of your abuse. try to stop us, it's no use. rise above. rise above. rise above. we're gonna rise above. we're gonna rise above. we're gonna rise above.
