Rise Up Lyrics - Dark Roots Of Earth - Testament

When I say rise up 

When I say war 

That means the time is now 

To even up the score 

The leader speaks 

His plan has failed before 

Enlisted soldiers 

Awaiting orders 

It's time for justice 

Just like before 

Our troops protect and serve 

Are they ever coming home 

So much regret 

Another killed by war 

Such a tragedy 

Enlisted soldiers 

Obey their orders 

When I say rise up 

You say war 

When I say rise up 

You say War! 

Rise Up... War! 

Rise Up... War! 

Rise Up... War! 

Rise Up... War! 

The smell of death 

Reeks through the air 

The stench of burning bodies 

Bloodshed everywhere 

Scattered remains 

And bullet shells 

Send in the dogs of war 

Unleash the hounds of hell 

It's time to rise up! 

It's time to rise for war! 

It's time to rise up! 

Black is death! 

And red is war! 

Yeah I said rise up 

And you said war... 

All for one and one for all 

The perfect world war 

All of the rest 

Will fail just like before 

Such a tragedy 

The fallen soldiers 

They followed orders 

When I say rise up 

You say war 

When I say rise up 

You say War! 

Rise Up... War! 

Rise Up... War! 

Rise Up... War! 

Rise Up... War!
