Rise Up Bru-C (Ft. Wretch 32)

Read between the lines of the pages in life
Seek and you will find the truth
Yeah yeah
Time to realise, open your eyes
There's so much more we can do

We need to rise up, rise
Make your mind up
Pull our people from the gutter
We need to rise up
Make your mind up, before times up, yes you must choose
Rise up
Make your mind up
Make your mind up, before times up, yеs you must choose

These arе pressing times
Streets filled with depressing vibes
Been here before it ain't the first or the second time, never mind
Breathe deep and we energise
Read between the lines, I don't believe what is televised
New suits crooked ties, evil crooked minds
Fear got my belly full of butterflies, run and hide
Racism in the nation
Dads black and my mothers white
I see the world like I'm a colourblind
England raised me, since I was a baby
Hooligans and pub fights, swingers on a daily
Poverty in areas, where nobody escapes
Nobody saved me
Nothing ever sweet. Nor was it savoury
Mixed race, mixed heritage and mixed opinion
Dysfunctional upbringing turned into brilliance
Living in this world all you really have is hope and resilience
