Rose Of Fire

from Giving Up Is Not An Option by The Upset

/

lyrics

In the summer of nineteen o nine
those in power forced the people to fight
but they raised their voices up in the sky
“in your senseless war we don't want to fight”

Working men dying for the rich men's cause
Riots started when all hope was lost
Churches burnt down and stones were thrown
“Liberty and justice is all we want”

In a day to come – the rose will burn again
In a day to come – with fire in our hearts
In a day to come – the rose will burn again
In a day to come – we're gonna take it back

Barcelona calling a general strike
Solidarity was the battle cry
Against the stupid colonial greed
Against their army sent to kill

The city was on fire on that tragic week
many died bleeding on the streets
but the spirit will never fade away
they'll need bigger bombs to stop us again

about

The Upset Barcelona, Spain

They say Oi! ain't dead. Well, it's almost anihilated in this town. So in the month of November of 2013 we decided to form a band and see if it brings some fresh air, or finally puts an end to its misery.
