Wait before you go (now)
And look down this old road Take all you see
For nothing is ever meant to be
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
But don't forget to write me when you find where it lies
(And the old man said) Son, don't waste your life And know when to roll the dice
Remember how life had passed them by
And never take for granted their brilliant sacrifice
Every man in the sand had a story
And everyone who stayed had a cost They fought and bled for their family They said we will rise, and it's never lost
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
But the old man never told him that life's too short to wait and hide No, the old man never told him that life's too short to pass you by
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
We will rise Oooh
