|
You are the sun I am the flame You are the blood I am the same We are the love That rises again They are the snake That bites on your veins We are not chained to the wheel You are the tear I have no fear You are so strange I feel the same Sorcerous mind We rise again We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel It’s the way that you feel It’s the truth in your eye You got wings upon your back And you can fly It’s the way that you feel It’s the truth in your eye ‘Cos you're up against the world And still you rise And still you rise You are alive Hide in my dreams You are the stars That mystify me And you are the wolf That frightens the thief And you are the voice That that they disbelieve We are not chained to the wheel And you are the spark That sets us all free We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel It’s the way that you feel It’s the truth in your eye You got wings upon your back And you can fly It’s the way that you feel It’s the truth in your eye ‘Cos you're up against the world But still you rise And still you rise Whaoh, baby It’s the way that you feel It’s the truth in your eye You got wings upon your back And you can fly It’s the way that you feel It’s the truth in your eye ‘Cos you're up against the world But still you rise And still you rise And still you rise And still you rise | |
