King is rising lyrics

Artist  : Impellitteri 
Song : King is rising
 

every morning on the evening news
I hear
the same ol’ story someone singing the
blues
disaster striking out and you’re not
ready
California quakes and the Midwest
floods
see the hurricanes and the Malibu
mud
ice and snow, you know it drives you
crazy

I hear the prophet of the modern
day
shouting out from the side of the
stage

the kind is rising
will you be
ready to stand up and fight

there’s
feeling all across the land
times are
tough--getting way out of hand
crime is on the
run and there’s no safety
war in the streets,
the economy
nothing stays the same and
there’s nothing for me
everybody’s frantic
for the sure thing

I see the prophet of the
modern day
stepping out from society’s
cage

the king is rising
will you be
ready to stand up and fight
the king is
rising
will you be ready to lay down your
life

I don’t think he’ll take any
longer, no,
I don’t think he’ll take any
more

(solo)

the king is
rising
will you be ready to stand up and
fight
the king is rising
will you be ready
to lay down your life
