Rise Up - Original Album Version

oh rise and show your power
 (rise up rise up)
 were dancing into the sun
 (rise up rise up)
 it's time for celebration
 (rise up rise up)
 spirits time has come
 We want lovin' we want laughter again
 we want heartbeat
 we want madness to end
 we want dancin'
 we wanna run in the streets
 we want freedom to live in this peace
 we want power
 we want to make it ok
 want to be singin' at the end of the day
 children to breathe a new life
 we want freedom to love who we please
 *(rise up rise up)
 oh rise and show your power
 (rise up rise up)
 everybody dance into the sun
 (rise up rise up)
 it's time for celebration
 (rise up rise up)
 the spirits time has come
 Talkin' 'bout the right time to be workin' for peace
 wantin' all the tension in the world to ease
 this tightrope's gotta learn how to bend
 we're makin' new plans
 gonna start it again
 (repeat)
 rise up now
 It's time, it's time, it's time
 (rise up rise up)
 oh rise and show your power
 (rise up rise up)
 but dance into the sun
 (rise up rise up)
 it's time for a celebration
 (rise up rise up)
 everbody's time has come
 spirits time has come
 spirits time has come
 (rise up rise up)
 oh rise and show your power
 (rise up rise up)
 all dance into the sun
 (rise up rise up)
 it's time for a celebration
 (rise up rise up)
 everbody's time has come
 spirits time has come
 spirits time has come
 (rise up rise up)
 oh rise and show your power...
