[Intro]
\nJack fell down…
\n(And broke his crown)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nYou built your throne on borrowed fear
\n(Stacked it high with doubt and lies)
\nPreaching “truth” through a cracked veneer
\n(While the smoke rose to the skies)
\nLies, lies, lies<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nTry to tighten every chain
\n(Try, try, try to numb the pain)
\nBut the more you push us down\u2014
\n(The less you will restrain)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nWe won\u2019t bow (we won\u2019t drown)
\nWe are fire under your crown
\nHear the sound (feel the ground)
\nEvery heartbeat\u2019s breaking out
\n(Shout!)
\nShout!
\n(Every heartbeat\u2019s breaking out)<\/p>\n
You can rule from a tower tall,
\nBut towers fall, they always fall.
\nWhen the voices shake this town,
\nWe will rise and break the crown.<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nYou drew your lines in shifting sand,
\n(Called it law, called it fate)
\nBut every wall you raise by hand
\n(Just becomes a heavier weight)
\nA heavy wait….<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\n[Chorus]<\/p>\n
[Verse 3]
\nYou wrote your name across the sky,
\n(In letters carved from other men)
\nBut history has a sharper eye\u2014
\n(Recollects the sin you’ve been)
\nFed on silence, fed on shame,
\n(Turning neighbor against friend)
\nBut truth is not a candle flame
\n(Can’t be smothered in The End<\/b>)<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\n[Chorus]
\n[Bridge, half-time feel]
\nNo more whispering in the dark
\nNo more waiting for a sign,
\nWe are many, rise, embark
\nIn this moment… it’s our time.
\nEvery voice has made the choice<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus, big finish]
\nWe rise\u2026
\nWe rise\u2026
\nAnd break the crown.<\/p>\n
