The Sign of the Southern Cross - The South Is Rising

Kishore Kumar Hits — The Sign of the Southern Cross - The South Is Rising lyrics

Artist: The Sign of the Southern Cross

album: Of Mountains and Moonshine

A goddamn mountain man I am.
Filled with wisdom from these haunted lands.
But the diatribe of the northern mouth,
Tempts to wake the sleeping beast of the south...
PAIN
(I know it)
SHAME
(I know it well)
BUT PRIDE
(I know it)
STRENGTH
(I know it well)
ALL TOO f***ING WELL...
AND THE SOUTH WILL RISE
RISE UP...
RISE... YOU TAKE MY HOME, AND REDUCE IT TO A TIRED, SATIRICAL, HILLBILLY REFERENCE... IT'S BEYOND OLD...(I abhor the f***ing arrogance
This rebel flag that I hold in my hand is not
The racist mark of an ignorant man.
It flies high for all of those who stand against any fool who'd impose
Unchecked aggression...
PAIN
(We know it)
SHAME
(We know it well)
BUT PRIDE
(We know it)
STRENGTH
(We know it well)
GODDAMN IT ALL TOO WELL...
AND THE SOUTH WILL RISE
RISE UP...
ON GOING,
UNDILUTED,
BESTOWING;
GIVING US THE RIGHT TO BE HERE...
MY PRIDE RUNS DEEPER THAN THESE MOUNTAINS HAVE HOLD...
MAKE KNOWN, BROTHERS AND SISTERS,
THAT YOU ARE CHILDREN OF THIS LAND YOU BEHOLD...
The south is rising AND THE SOUTH WILL RISE
RISE UP
