Sunrise blinding my eyes Riding on the wind Down, down, down Oppression is holding us down Tied to the ground Shackled and chained we are bound See how you've broken The will of all these men The spirits are choking But hope will always remain Sunrise blinding my eyes Riding on the wind I'm sick of this, sick of this fighting Life like animals Pound, pound, pound Grinding them into the ground Keeping them blind In darkness ever confined Revel in terror Revel in pain Our spirits are choking But hope will never refrain Sunrise blinding my eyes Riding on the wind I'm sick of this, sick of this fighting Life like animals Die, die, die The forgers of this evil lie The yoke cast aside Breaking the chains Freedom cry No we are rising, reach for the sky Sunrise kissing my eyes Riding on the wind I'm free from this, free from this fighting Free like animals Beauty reflecting the sunlight Mountains crowned with snow I marvel at valleys in bloom Stand in awe of mother earth
