lyrics
RISE UP by Karen Bella
I’m gonna rise up
Not gonna give up
I thought about it twice to take my life
Ultimate sacrifice to turn the lights off
Rise Up
Not gonna give up
Everything is in-front of you who knows what will happen to you
There is a light within that cave so you don’t make that permanent
Mistake
CHORUS:
Don’t Cry little girl
Pick yourself and fight
With all your might
Where you can see the light
you got the information
you got the dedication
to make it out alive
Come one now rise up
Come on now get up
I thought about it twice to take my life
Ultimate sacrifice to turn the lights off
Rise Up
Not gonna now give up
Everything is in front of you who knows what will happen to you
There is a life within that cave so you don’t make that permanent
Mistake
CHORUS
Don’t Cry little girl
Pick yourself and fight
Hope hides in dark
Where you can see the light
you got the information
you got the dedication
to make it out alive
Bridge
And I dunno if I wanna change my whole view about it
And I dunno if I can look another way
What do my friends say ‘bout it?
Therapist, mom, brother, sister?
Dont wanna hear what they say
You better rise up
Come on now get up
I thought about it twice to take my life
Ultimate sacrifice to turn the lights off
Rise up
Come on now get up

New York duo showcase an enigmatic blend of math rock guitars, pop-punk sing-a-longs, emo confessionals, and even rave-ready synths. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 15, 2023
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
