Icarus
Rise Against Injustice: Icarus' Anthem for Change
Lyrics
Change is coming, we can see it on the streets
Change is imminent, evident in the streets.
Word is spreading faster than my own heart beats
Information is spreading rapidly, outpacing the heartbeat.
If we don't stand up, then things will never change
If we don't take a stand, the status quo will persist.
For we bear the power to rearrange the
We possess the ability to reshape our thinking and beliefs.
Way we think and what we believe in
Advocate for dismantling the dishonest and deceptive system.
Abolish this system, the lying, deceiving
Challenge the corruption prevailing in the world.
Can't sink in a world so corrupt
In a morally bankrupt world, one cannot succumb.
Act now, speak loud, it's time to rise up
Take action, vocalize, it's time for a collective uprising.
Fire, come closer
Invoking a metaphorical fire, urging for change.
Leave me blind
An appeal to avoid being blinded by destructive forces.
I'm looking for something real
The search for authenticity and genuine experiences.
Keep me hanging on
Persistence despite challenges, holding on.
When will you see that enough is enough?
Questioning when awareness of excess will prevail.
Will it take a voice of reason or a mob that breaks stuff?
Contemplating whether change requires reasoned voices or disruptive actions.
Tried kneeling, now we're up on the seats
Having tried peaceful methods, now resorting to more assertive measures.
Watch how we're raising hell, we're turning up the heat, we're
A declaration of causing chaos and intensifying the situation.
Breaking the silence
Breaking the silence, standing against injustice.
We're standing up to this injustice with violence
Confronting injustice with force if necessary.
How much more time do we need
Questioning the time needed for self-liberation.
To liberate ourselves and get up off our knees
Urgency to rise from submissive positions.
Fire, come closer
Invoking the metaphorical fire again, seeking change.
Leave me blind
A plea to avoid being blinded to reality.
I'm looking for something real
Continuing the search for authenticity.
Keep me hanging on
Perseverance despite challenges.
We're moving closer
Progressing forward, gaining clarity.
We're not blind
Rejecting blindness, seeking genuine experiences.
Looking for something real
The ongoing quest for authenticity.
Will keep us hanging on
Perseverance will keep us holding on.
But we're moving
Continuing to move forward despite challenges.
Fire, come closer
Invoking change once again, urging for action.
Leave me blind
Warning against becoming blinded to the need for change.
I'm looking for something real
Continuing the search for authenticity.
Keep me hanging on
Perseverance despite challenges.
It's time, time to rage
A call to express rage and discontent.
It's time, to rearrange
An urging to rearrange and transform the existing order.
It's time, to make a change
An emphatic call to instigate change.
Stand up, stand up
A directive to stand up against the prevailing situation.
Turn the page
A metaphorical suggestion to turn the page, indicating a new chapter or mindset.
