Napalm Death - Rise Above lyrics

rate me

Lyrics : Lee Dorrian / Music : Shane Embury

At time of birth,

minds free from suspicion,

senses raped,

induced with superstition.

A pre-set mode

to befit description,

language, colour,

race definition !

Inner strength must detect

the love we each possess

before we may reach,

appreciating it in anyone else.

External distinctions

used as scapegoats to problems,

channelling our aggression

in the wrong direction.

Break down the barriers

that enforce superstition.

Learn to trust,

overcome suspicion.

Acceptance, the weapon,

active against our freedom,

our love and compassion

held at treason.

Rise above induced superstition.
