Arise Above Oppression Lyrics

Rise above, rise above
Steal away to hide your shame
Rise above, rise above!

Rise above your oppression
Above the one that hates you
Above the one that lies
Above the one that hates
Death! Fear! Rage!

Rise above your depression
Above the one that kills
Above the one that hates
Above all of the pain
Fear! Death! Rage!

Rise above, rise above
Rise above
Rise
Rise
Rise

Rise above your oppression
Above the pain and suffering
Above the one that hates you
And kills you
Through all of your life

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
