War Cry
Social Club Misfits Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is our war cry, we'll rise up
And this is our time to rise up, rise up, yeah

I thought by now I would get it
His love for me is unmeasured
Still feel like I could do better
Was paralyzed by depression
But heaven and earth came together
And you came to my rescue
I use my voice as a weapon
On earth like it's in heaven
Yeah, I never handle things too well
But I was made to fly, not to fail
I don't need man's approval
When God sent me to bring heaven
Down for the kids going through hell
Yeah, we gon' make it
I don't care what the world's been saying
It's time to step up, not cave in
The grace he gave us, amazing
A love that could conquer the hatred
But it's up to us
A new generation to show his love
From the ends of the earth to the day he comes

This is our war cry, we'll rise up
And this is our time to rise up, rise up, yeah
This is our war cry, we'll rise up
And this is our time to rise up, rise up, yeah

Okay, we turned the stage to an altar at the last show
Something about when you know you're being impactful
Using the tools I was given but being tactful
Went from the pit to raps inside of a mac full
With the power size of a Mack truck
I went through the hard times, no bad luck
Graduated cap, gown with the tassle
Now I make art like Basel
But I still keep it classic like a left eye rhyme
Big Poppa like the Bed Stuy guy
I got the dirt off my shoulders like Jay in his prime
I stood on my own two like the veterans taught
If I ever lay down, let it be for some rest
And whenever I'm recharged, let me be at my best
So whenever I'm pouring out all your love to the rest
Now you can go and tell them the rest

This is our war cry, we'll rise up
And this is our time to rise up, rise up, yeah
This is our war cry, we'll rise up
And this is our time to rise up, rise up, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
War cry
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh




Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
War cry

I’ve been going through some really tough times lately and I had the urge to break down and pray to god today in the shower to show me a sign. And then I got back in my room and played this song. I started crying and praising god. This was that sign. Bless you god and bless you social club misfits. Amen

@ColeMcCrumb

Thank you for telling it like it is and reminding me to let go of anger and move forward with God. I need him more than ever right now...much love and prayers, I am working on keeping my head up (went to college to get my bachelors in law enforcement, been here 18 years, now just finished my master's degree in paralegal studies....but so many years of seeing nothing but addiction, greed, death, pain that you can't take away from someone's heart and head - that's what hurts your soul.) Time to rise up as I have been blessed to have helped many. but the ones that are are losing the battle, prayers for them to to rise up. So, like you, I am finding my way back, giving it all to Him for what He has planned as I have always kept my integrity, honesty, and respect - he will show me soon what He has planned for me next. Love the Social Club Misfits - maybe someday I can see you perform. Thanks for touching my heart and lifting me up today.

@brycerauba5561
