Lyrics for Arise By Okeyrap
[Intro]
Yeah
A sigh
[Verse 1]
When it goeth well with the righteous
The nation rejoiceth
But when the wicked perish
There seem to be a shout of praise
And lord as it stands
With the much chaos in the land
Let the light of the wicked
Be put out
I mean in a great haste
Cos av seen them in their vices
Exploiting the very masses
They’re meant to protect
And yet relying on the same voices
To be reelected
The system is infected
And much more perverted
However, must be corrected
So arise lord in Your mercy
Arise Lord in Your fury and contend with our contenders
Cos they’ve turned into vipers
Fish them out
Rule them out
And overturn it round about
Till it gets to whose right it is
Indeed whose right it is..
[Chorus]
Arise
O compatriots x2
Cos the future is in our hands
Common let’s take this chance
United we all stand
Common let’s take this chance
[Verse 2]
End SARS was the trend
But are You still seating at home
When You can go out and make new trends
And not loose ends
Rekindle the passion
And let the voice of the Youth be heard
That in the year 2020
We fought for our right
Let it be said
But does it look strange
Each time we protest
And there’s no change
Does it sound awkward
If we begin to look
from the inwards
Let’s fight this
From our knees
Everyone, a part of these
Cos the change we seek
Can only begin from us the unweak
The unweak defines
Every citizen with the right to speak
Unweak defines the bold
With freedom not sold
Unweak reminds citizens
Of their pledge to the country
To uphold her honour and glory
Before God
So help me
[Chorus]
Arise
Oh compatriots x2
Cos the future is in our hands
Common let’s take this chance
United we all stand
Common let’s take this chance
