Still on a bit of a retro kick. A little rock/pop number I've been kicking around for a while. Kind of a throwback to those late 80s college days.
A bit, anyway.
Not sure if there's any kind of message to the lyrics. Maybe. It may be about a party. Or a riot. Back in the day, they could be one in the same if everyone was having a really good time.
Anyway, hope you enjoy!

Lyrics
Rise!
©2012 Joseph Gurner
Get up, get up
Get onto your feet now
Take it out take it out
Out to the street yeah
Bring it up bring it down
Shake it all gone
Rising up rising up
Into the dawn
Make it up, making out
Out of your mind now
Gimme, gimme, gimme
a drop of that wine yeah
Spinning, spinning, spinning
Out of control
Caught up in the action
That’s all you know
You’ve got to rise up
Throw away your chains
Come on in, come on out
down to the fun
Picking up the pieces
Until we’re all done
Carry out, carry on
voices all shout
Crazy, crazy, crazy
Leaving no doubt
Run away, run away
All the way home yeah
Hide inside you closet
Until you’re alone
Breathing out, breathing in
Into your soul yeah
Burning, burning, burning
That’s all you know
You’ve got to rise up
Throw away your chains
You’ve got to rise up
Throw away your chains
You’ve got to rise up
Again and again
Get up, get up
Get onto your feet now
Take it out take it out
Out to the street yeah
Dance around the ashes
Until they’re all gone
Burning, burning, burning
Singing you song
Tell it, tell it, tell it
The far and the near
Shout it out, shout it out
Let everyone hear yeah
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Dance it all gone
Rising up, rising up
Into the dawn
You’ve got to rise up
Throw away your chains

I like the call to arms vibe of the lyrics. Interesting how it starts out with almost a Crazy Horse rock power. But then the background vocals and chord changes transform this into something that echo's a Brian Wilson production. Well done!
