Today We Rise lyrics

[Sid]
I say we storm the castle and take back what's rightfully ours. Who's with me?!

[Peasants of Valencia]
Yeah!

[Sid + Peasants of Valencia]
We will march and we'll fight
For the cause of good and right

[Sid]
Though the odds of us surviving
Are ridiculously slight

[Sid + Peasants of Valencia]
And we'll stand proud and tall

[Sid]
'Till they come to kill us all
Then we'll beg and plead and soil ourselves
As one by one we fall
Some they'll slash, some they'll hack
Some they'll bludgeon blue and black
Some they'll gut from top to bottom
Some they'll mangle front to back
And we'll all realize
As they're gouging out our eyes
That tomorrow we'll regret it
But today we rise!
And our corpses will rot on the plain
Leaving only a gross, bloody stain
Then the world, it will see
As will all of history
[Sid + Peasants of Valencia]
We had truth on our side

[Sid]
But we still died in vain

And the brave and lucky few
Who will somehow make it through
Scarred for life and missing limbs
And needing help to pee and poo
They can stand 'neath these skies
Begging change from passerbys
Is it hopeless, yep you said it
We might as well forget it
Tomorrow we'll regret it
But today we rise!
Oh my God, will we regret it
But today we rise!
Not so tough now are you. We're going to tear this castle down! Right everybody! I said right everybody! Tell me, why do musicals always get me so worked up?
