The Righteous Ones
Rising Above the Tides: The Resilience of the Righteous
Lyrics
Oooooh yeah
Expression of excitement or affirmation
Lay flat, let the river attack
Lie down and face an aggressive force (symbolized by the river)
As the bitter chill flows through
Experiencing a harsh, unpleasant cold sensation
Straight black, now you're taken aback
Now surprised or shocked in a dark or negative way
Til the breath returns to you
Hold on until you can breathe again
Make land, now you're takin' a stand
Reach solid ground and take a firm position
Leavin' waters full of sin
Leaving behind a sinful or troubled past
Big man, got the world in your hands
Someone powerful with control over the world
Bring it back to life again
Restore life and vitality
Raise your head and hold the line
Stay strong and resilient
Make them yell, oh, it's time, it's time
Encourage others to recognize it's time for action
Save yourself from the siren sound
Protect yourself from enticing but dangerous influences
When the tide comes up, take it down and drown
When challenges arise, face them and overcome
Take it down, yeah
Reiterate the need to face challenges
Straight-laced in a world of mistakes
Being morally upright in a world full of errors
That the worst would kill to try
Even the most negative situations won't defeat you
Make haste, not a moment to waste
Act quickly; time is precious
With the daylight screaming by
Daylight passes swiftly; make the most of it
Walk proud with your head in the clouds
Walk proudly with a positive and righteous mindset
Like the righteous ones before
Emulate the virtuous actions of those who came before
Speak loud, cause you're drawin' a crowd
Speak confidently, attracting attention
And they're knockin' at your door
Face challenges presented by others
Raise your head and hold the line
Reiterate the need to stay strong
Make them yell, oh, it's time, it's time
Encourage others to recognize it's time for action (repeated)
Save yourself from the siren sound
Protect yourself from enticing but dangerous influences (repeated)
When the tide comes up, take it down and drown
When challenges arise, face them and overcome (repeated)
Take it down, yeah
Reiterate the need to face challenges (repeated)
Down and drown
Repetition emphasizing the action of taking down challenges
Take it down and drown
-Take it down and drown
-Take it down and drown
-Take it down and drown
-Take it down and drown
-Take it down and drown
-Take it down and drown
-Raise your head and hold the line
Reiterate the need to stay strong (repeated)
Make them yell, oh, it's time, it's time
Encourage others to recognize it's time for action (repeated)
Save yourself from the siren sound
Protect yourself from enticing but dangerous influences (repeated)
When the tide comes up, take it down and drown
When challenges arise, face them and overcome (repeated)
Take it down, yeah
Reiterate the need to face challenges (repeated)
