Revolution Comes
Copyright © 2011 Kelli Caldwell
ROUGH A CAPPELLA VERSION!
City on the rise
Give it time, give it time, give it time
Sweating on the line
(You) Sacrifice
While your bones are sucked dry
Bring your hammer
Bring your nails
Bring your blood
And bring your tales of pain
That’s what it takes
To build
Chorus:
Evolution of revolution
Revolution come
Evolution of revolution
Revolution come
Bring your hammer
Bring your gun
Bring your blood
And let it run——
That’s what we’ve done
To build
Country in decline
What a crime, what a crime, it’s a crime
Praying on the rail
Is it too late?
Maybe this ship has sailed
Bring your hammer
Bring your knife
Bring your blood
And give your life, they say
That’s what it takes
To build
Chorus:
Bring your hammer
Make your choice
Bring your blood
And use your voice for change
That’s what it takes
Re-build
Bridge:
Re-build
Re-grow
Re-new
Re-sow our souls
We sold our souls
That’s how it goes
Chorus:
Bring your hammer
Bring your heart
Bring your blood
And make it start today——
That’s what it takes
To build
