American Arson - Rise Lyrics

The gates of hell shall not prevail against me. The gates of hell shall not prevail.

""Peace, my soul,"" say it again, deep breath, then try to remember this isn't a war that I have to fight alone. Fear and disgrace have no place this side of redemption, and none of our falls are unbroken.

Don't let me, don't let me down. Revolution is calling, calling, but ""feet on the ground,"" I've found, is harder than it seems. Let me rejoice in the sound of the barricades falling, falling, crumbling down, down, down 'til I know...

So every soul that's seeking shelter: come alive! And when they gather for the deathblow... stand and fight.

So take your best shot but get one thing straight: if I fall down 7 times, I'll stand up 8. All you vultures circling are gonna have to wait: if I fall down 7 times, I'll stand up 8.
