Black-Lung Revival lyrics

way down south where the backbeat crawls

through the mud thicker than blood

we gather round to praise the sound

oh brothers and sisters have you heard?

we are all just sinners here

in the eyes of the world

so join together with me now

and let our voices, our voices be heard

we’ve come so far but we’re still the same

they will listen, we will say

stand among us, hands to the sky

and tell the world it’s ours tonight

smoke is risin from these halls

see the writing on the walls

a thousand souls burnin bright

praise the power of our might

chorus:

it's a black-lung revival

coursing through our veins

it's a black-lung revival

from the underground, let's go insane

when the clock strikes heaven above

and the judgment comes to call

how many here will still be standing

to champion the cause?

listen close the words I say

and take them well to heart

there’s power inside ourselves

there’s a brand new way to start

we’ve come so far but we’re still the same

they will listen, we will say

stand among us, hands to the sky

praise the power of our might

our voices echo in these halls

feel the tremble of the walls

a thousand souls burnin bright

the underground will rise tonight

chorus

chorus
