Why is it that the best music is so often overlooked? This song wasn't even a single and it easily beats 90% of music released now. It's baffling.

“Just because your present doesn’t mean that your here”

Ain’t that the truth

[KilroyEdits]

Just because you're running doesn't mean that you're scared. Just because it's law doesn't mean that it's fair.

This was the anthem of my youth

So many good quotes in this song but i love:
"Just another lemon at a lemonade job."

[IrishPixie]

Switchfoot's so awesome. I wish they got more attention. They deserve it.

Music is my drug, it peps me up and feeds me energy when I’m happy or helps me cope when I’m down. Switchfoot is one of my favorites. Right now I really needed this optimist anger!! Rise above it! All the crap! Through Christ we can do all things!

[jennymamman]

One of my favourite Switchfoot songs! I can say that about many! Lol

Another couple kids with their heads on top
Just another stranger just another plot
Another track home where the city streets stop
Just another kid with another bored cop
Just another lemon into lemonade job
Just another rust and dust facade
Just another key stuck broken in the lock
Just another scarecrow choking on a cough
Oh come on!
It all feels so typical
Guess I'm looking for a miracle
Rise above it
I don't care what their telling me
We could be what we want to be
Rise above it
Listen up loud listen up listen here
Just because you're running
Doesn't mean that you're scared
Just because it's law doesn't mean it is fair
Never let another tell your soul what to fear
Here we go again give it one more try
Don't believe the system's on your side
Just another lover turned enemy fight
Just another blood and nicotine sky
Oh come on!
It feels so difficult
Guess I'm looking for a miracle
I get so sick of it
It feels so counterfeit
I rise above it
Rise above it
Hear our voices rise
Hear our battle cry
We've been under the curse
With our arms raised high
Hear us sing tonight
Like the last night on earth
We will rise like the tide
Like dead men
Coming back to life
We are rising
Rising
Turn it up now, listen loud and clear
Just because you're present
Doesn't mean you're here
Oh come on!
Let's rise above it
We can rise above it

My uncle has been a fan since the beginning, wish I was there too.

[kjtedder]

The lyrics in this album show an enlightened, and alongside that, inevitably frustrated soul. It’s a beautiful and insanely difficult combo. But what occurs I believe before true freedom... suffering is grace calling one home because the world no longer works or feels like home. No longer bodies with a soul but souls waking up in “jars of clay”. Desiring more than what is seen or the place we exist has to offer. The answer? Is within.

Like dead men comming back to life we are rising!!!

"Rise Above It"

Another couple kids with their heads on top

Oh come on!

It all feels so typical
Guess I'm looking for a miracle
Rise above it
I don't care what their telling me
We could be what we want to be

Rise above it

Listen up loud listen up listen here
Just because you're running

Just another lover turned enemy fight

Just another blood and nicotine sky
Oh come on!

It feels so difficult
Guess I'm looking for a miracle
I get so sick of it
It feels so counferfeit
I rise above it
Rise above it

Hear our voices rise
Hear our battle cry
We've been under the curse

Hear us sing tonight
Like the last night on earth
We will rise like the tide

Rising
Turn it up now, listen loud and clear
Just because you're present
Doesn't mean you're here
Oh come on!

Let's rise above it
We can rise above it
