about

Should I Rise?

The boy just wanted to sleep all day long. He was tired from waiting by the phone. His mom and dad tried to get him out of bed but he thought the idea of getting up was a crazy idea. All he wanted to do was dream. He dreamed that he was a king. And he dreamed that he was waving goodbye to someone.

Who was she?

lyrics

Should I Rise?
(Words & music by Michael Mazzarella)

Should I rise?

Wake up, wake up

What good for me can waking be?
So let me be alone to sleep

Wake up, wake up

Should I rise?

Wake up, wake up
