Description
In May of 2012, Three after school teachers were called upon to create a song that would inspire and celebrate a group of exceptional youth leaders. The song "Rise Up" was born, and soon became the foundation for everything that would follow. With a sound that embodies 'positivity with an edge', Rise Up has received rave reviews from Parents, Peers, and Students alike. The group was encouraged to continue to explore this mutual musical path, and has done exactly that. Enjoy, and Rise Up!
Lyrics
1. Rise Up by Educate The Antidote (2012): Intro Speech: As we approach our destiny, we must proceed with a reckless ambition, Time will not wait, and opportunity is only a moment, Fear not for your time has come, Reach for the sky until you touch the stars, And together we shall rise, Rise up dreamers for it is our time! Verse 1: Hang-gliding on a hope and a dream, sky-walking on top of a cloud, Each day is a one time thing, so make sure that whatever you say, you speak loud… Chase dreams when you’re not sleeping, Until you get 'em, the only escape you if you let 'em, Chasing the greats and you catch em, Chasing the greats and you catch em. Bridge A: Though your feet are on the earth, if you put in the work, No aspirations too high, With a calling, and no fear of falling, you’ll find, Inspiration and fly, Your future’s what you make it, any barrier you’ll break it, As you take to the sky, Never forget the feeling, of bursting through the ceiling, And stay determined to Rise! Chorus (1): Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! This could be my last chance, To stand up, stand up! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! This could be my last chance, To stand up, stand up! Verse 2: To be free you gotta pay the price, it’s just the way of life, You eat a little then you save a slice, Stay hungry, keep an appetite, either day or night, Remain yourself while they remain alike The key to living is to learn yourself, train and earn your belts, Freak a flow until your glow is felt Realize, sometimes you gotta go for help, Realize, sometimes you gotta go for help. Bridge A (2): Though your feet are on the earth, if you put in the work, No aspirations too high, With a calling and no fear of falling, you’ll find, Inspiration to fly, You’re future’s what you make it, any barrier you’ll break it, As you take to the sky, Never forget the feeling, of bursting through the ceiling, And stay determined to Rise! Chorus (2): Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! This could be my last chance, To stand up, stand up! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! This could be my last chance, To stand up, stand up! Bridge B (Rap): See it, Believe it, Got a goal, you can achieve it, And no one can defeat it, You awake but still you dreaming, And you can go the farthest, Take it higher than the stars is, From the sky out to where Mars is, To the top, yeah that’s the Target. See it, Believe it, Got a goal, you can achieve it, And no one can defeat it, You awake but still you dreaming, And you can go the farthest, Take it higher than the stars is, From the sky out to where Mars is, To the top, yeah that’s the Target. Rise Up! Nathan Guitar Solo: Chorus (3): Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! This could be my last chance, To stand up, stand up! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! Rise Up, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o! This could be my last chance, To stand up, stand up! Bridge A (Acapella) (3): Though your feet are on the earth, if you put in the work, No aspirations too high, With a calling and no fear of falling, you’ll find, Inspiration to fly, You’re future’s what you make it, any barrier you’ll break it, As you take to the sky, Never forget the feeling, of bursting through the ceiling, And stay determined to Rise!
