Download Rise Up! (mp3 format)

The song Rise Up! was inspired by the growing protests in America. Saturday, Feb 1, I was listening to the speeches made at the Washington DC march, and they got me so fired up, I wrote this song the same evening. The next day my friends and I were in the studio laying down the first tracks. Squeezing in sessions around our working schedules, we had the song finished by Thursday evening (Thailand time - that's where we live.). I sent it to Meria Heller, meria.net, and she opened her next show with it. If you haven't discovered Meria yet - check her out. You can listen to the Washington DC speeches there also. Anyway, the recording is a little raw, but it captures our feeling. If you like the song, please download it, copy it, and spread it around. Get radio stations to play it. It's free (for non-profit use). Let's stay free from fear people - remember - WE have the power.

They say it's to protect you while they try to dispossess you of the right to decide between wrong or right to openly discuss what politicians hide. They want to keep their secret plans from the public eye we got to keep our fires burning keep our spirits bright. We got to rise up, rise up, rise up. Rise up people against the war! Money's got no children and bombs ain't for building and killing ain't no way to make a peaceful day as all of God's children can easily explain. We got to keep our fires burning keep our spirits bright stand up and speak for what we know is right. We got to rise up, rise up, rise up. Rise up people against the war! -I see days ahead -kiss my children into bed -all across the planet I -see that everything is fine! Rise up people against the war! We've got the power and the will and we'll do it for our children put the warmongers and the corporate whores in the history books with the dinosaurs. I claim my power! I claim my rights!
