​RISE UP
words and music
​copyright © 2018 by

Roy Zimmerman and Melanie Harby
In the stillness of the aftermath
Some of us were heard to say,
“Nothing’s ever gonna change
It’s just the way things go”

Makes you want to give up trying
Makes you shake your head and cry
Yeah, we’ve seen it all before
And we know what we know

But you, too young to know it can’t be done
You can do it now for everyone

Rise Up Rise Up Rise Up
This is your world and this is your time
Rise Up Rise Up Rise Up
Yeah, you’ll be lifting as you climb
Rise Up, Rise Up, Rise Up ...

And when again we stand in darkness
In the outrage of the hour
Wondering why and why and why
Looking left, looking right

We'll remember that we raised you
And we'll see your hearts on fire
Not giving up, not giving in
And we'll follow your light

For you, too young to say impossible
You make it possible again and again

Rise Up Rise Up Rise Up
This is your world and now is your time
Rise Up Rise Up Rise Up
Yeah, you’ll be lifting as you climb
Rise Up
Rise Up
Rise Up ...

This is your world and now is your time
Rise Up Rise Up Rise Up
Yeah, you’ll be lifting as you climb
Rise Up
Rise Up
Rise Up ...


"Rise Up" is on the new double album release THIS MACHINE: THE BEST OF ROY ZIMMERMAN, and on the album RIZE UP, available as a CD, as a digital download as part of the Complete Collection.
