This Too Shall Pass

Rise up when centuries have passed
No longer dreaming of emancipation
Radicals see proclamations made
It's all a constant shadow dressed in black
We're building ladders up and climbing close to the sun
We're making waves of fortune.
Underground they stole my written word
But I've been left with a conscience

These are the times when we pull together
Arm in arm let's celebrate each other
Just let it out don't hide away and dissipate
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

An introduction first before we exchange our terms for surrender
I'm evangelical to the point of no return
But only when I am winning
Dancing in the park we found our time again
It lasted less than a moment
2600 days have gone in a blink
And I'm left here waltzing alone

These are the times when we pull together
Arm in arm let's celebrate each other
Just let it out don't hide away and dissipate
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

Hold on
Keep talking don't let go
Rise up
Keep talking don't let go
Hold on
Keep taking don't let go
Rise up
Keep taking don't let go

These are the times when we pull together
Arm in arm let's celebrate each other
Just let it out don't hide away and dissipate
This too shall pass
Hold on
Keep talking don't let go
Rise up
Keep taking don't let go
This too shall pass
Hold on
Keep talking don't let go
This too shall pass
Hold on
Keep talking don't let go
This too shall pass
Rise up
Keep talking don't let go
This too shall pass
Hold on
Keep talking don't let go
This too shall pass
Rise up
Keep talking don't let go
This too shall pass
Hold on
Keep talking don't let go
This too shall pass
