The battle field is yours


The battle field is yours
by Carol Marufu

who said to you arise
arise and dream
what? arise
arise and dream
who said to you arise
you arose with such hope
arose with such passion
what? arose
arose and dreamt

who said to you arise
arise and dream
don’t you know he soon will steal your dream
What? arise
ooh no stay dead and he will not care not
dream and he will make it his plan of the day
to arise and take your dream
arise not

who said to you arise
arise and dream
but if you must arise
yes! arise
arise ready to fight
arise ready to take cover
arise with strength of an army
who said arise
did I say don’t listen to
that voice that says arise and dream
ooh no
yes! arise
arise and dream
but arise knowingly that as you arise it becomes your battle field...
