Let the People Rise
Here’s to the man
who pretended to care
Here’s to the man who pretended to pray
Here’s to the man who pretended to play
Here’s to the man who pretended to care
Here’s to the girl who tried to care
Here’s to the girl who tried to pray
Here’s to the girl who tried to play
Here’s to the girl who tried to care
Here’s to the boy brave enough to care
Here’s to the boy brave enough to pray
Here’s to the boy brave enough to play
Here’s to the boy brave enough to care
Here’s to the woman who never cared
Here’s to the woman who never prayed
Here’s to the woman who never played
Here’s to the woman who never cared
Here’s to the people who always know
Emotions are emotions
Pray is pray
Play is play
And caring is caring
And here’s to the people who always know
That no matter what happens
They won’t be another cliché
Let the people rise and say
“That’s nice, I do not care”
Without fear of ridicule
Let the people rise and say
“I’m not afraid to pray”
Let the people rise and say
“I want to be a child”
Let the people rise and say
“That’s nice, I do care”
Without fear of ridicule
Let the people rise.
