Trumpet on the Wall (Remastered)
[Verse 1] Archangel Michael said, listen close The tally's gone on long enough He pointed east, then he pointed west Said the year turned red and rough He said the masks came off in stages Behind the glass, behind the gates While we kept count with hungry hands They kept their secrets heavy and late [Pre-Chorus] And if you feel that pressure now It's not your mind, it's not your fault It's every lie that lined the walls It's every lock, it's every vault [Chorus] We the people, rise We the people, rise We the people, rise Take it back tonight We the people, stand We the people, stand We the people, stand With fire in our hands [Verse 2] He said the war began in whispers In back rooms where the candles burned In 2020, the tide broke hard And every hidden thing returned He said the books were stacked in darkness The crumbs were swept beneath the rug But every child deserves a morning And every lie will lose its drug [Pre-Chorus] So lift your eyes and name the chains Say what was hidden, say it plain The ones who fed on broken trust Will hear the thunder in the rain [Chorus] We the people, rise We the people, rise We the people, rise Take it back tonight We the people, stand We the people, stand We the people, stand With fire in our hands [Bridge] Michael said, don't bow your head When fear tries to wear a crown The weakest voice in the great dark room Can shake the stone walls down He said the line is drawn in dust Not rich or poor, but right and wrong And every name that chose the night Will answer when the bells ring long [Final Chorus] We the people, rise We the people, rise We the people, rise Take it back tonight We the people, stand We the people, stand We the people, stand With fire in our hands We the people, rise We the people, rise We the people, rise And we won't back down
