"I'm a soldier, and that means
I'm both defendant and judge
I stand on both sides of the fire
Bending along the steep turns, overtaking death and life
I'm running to fight the shadow of the lies
No matter how many threads deceit weaves
The truth will show its face to the light
Save your tears for the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet, come with me
We are soldiers, stand or die
Save your fears, take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free, follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
I'm a soldier, born to stand
In this waking hell I am
Witnessing more than I can compute
Pray myself we don't forget
Lies, betrayed and the oppressed
Please give me the strength to be the truth
We face the fire together
If we don't, we'll lose all we have found
Save your tears for the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet, come with me
We are soldiers, stand or die
Chase the dream to the edge of the abyss
This is the only way to save the world
Don't you cry,
Hide your tears
Because there will be a new day
Your fire will be heating
Thousands of hearts
Now, rise up
Hide your pain and fear far off
The right will prevail
Remember, everything is in your hands
Save your tears for the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet, come with me
We are soldiers, stand or die..."
- Origa, "Rise"
