Rise Up Lyrics

I am not weak
I am a warrior
Courage unsheathed
I stand alone
And with the sea
Of those before me
There is no fear
To call our own

You've got to dig a little deeper
Fight a little harder
Knowing there may be no second chance
And I will rise up
When there's nowhere left to turn
And I will rise up
Let this fire in me burn
When our time is up
And I will be there standing strong
And I will rise up, we will rise up
We are strong
And with each other
We take our stand
We are one, We are one
And as the sky is never-ending
Our faith won't die
We'll carry on

We've got to dig a little deeper
Knowing there may be no second chance
And I will rise up
When there's nowhere left to turn
And I will rise up
Let this fire in me burn
When our time is up
And I will be there standing strong
And I will rise up, we will rise up

This is the moment that we see
Everything here within our reach
This is the time we find our hearts alive
This is the time for you and me
Together we fight until we're free
We can be all that we can be
Yeah

Now we will rise up
When there's nowhere left to turn
And I will rise up
Let this fire in me burn
When our time is up
And I will be there standing strong
And I will rise up, we will rise up

We can be all that we can be
We will rise up

GRO, from Ft. Worth, Texas delivers a raucous blend of acoustic-driven power-pop rock that, while changing often in tempo and timbre, never sounds anything less than pristine, dynamic, smart, and uniquely Green River Ordinance.

They've sold over 20,000 copies between their 2 independent releases: their full length debut, Beauty of Letting Go (avail for free @ www.freegro.net) and their new EP, Way Back Home. They've packed houses across the Country, and have toured with the likes of Bon Jovi, Collective Soul, The Click 5, Blue October, Bowling for Soup, Flickerstick, Eisley, Simple Plan, Mutemath, Matt Wertz, Lovedrug and many other bands already established in the music world.

Just barely old enough to be customers in the bars they sometimes play, the band is anything but green. They have lived the life, and on stage or in the studio, this fact is obvious. Smooth, polished and professional, their musicianship and stage presence belies their youth. They look like what they are: rock stars. But that's where the similarity ends. You won't find these young men bashing their way through hotel room walls or overdosing on the latest chemical craze on a tour bus.

GRO is not like other bands on the way to the top. Negativity isn't their thing. Positive in the face of all the adversity rock and roll can throw at them, the joy they have with each other, and with their music, shines in their faces. They walk their own walk, and they walk it proudly. They are making their own rules, taking their own place in time, making their own mark on the world.

And they are loving every minute of it.
