Lyrics:
Come now, come now
Things aren’t that bad
Or so we try to convince ourselves
We’re doing fine
Come now, come now
This is just temporary
The madness will one day end
And we’ll be fine
There’s still time
Don’t buy the lie
We keep waiting on the world to stop
But it won’t slow down
And we’ll never catch up
We keep waiting on the world to stop
But the time is now
And we’ve got to get off
This revolution, our revolution
What now, what now?
Get off the carousel
That’s trying to steal our lives
It’s just not right
Hold out, hold out
And let the moment count
For more than we realize
This is our time
We’re the break away
From the masquerade
And we will not join in the world race
Cause we’re not afraid
To make a change
We’ll stand up tall
And together say…

Behind the Song:
'Despite all the advances of modern culture and the standard of wealth we often enjoy as Americans, the guys weren’t afraid to vent a few of their frustrations on “Revolution.” “What the world presents to you doesn’t frequently align with the hopes and plans that God has for you,” Steven says. “So this song was definitely meant to be an anthem and was deliberately written that way.” Conveyed with a frantic sense of urgency both lyrically and musically, it’s the band’s declaration of staying true to its calling, no matter how great the cost.' - Steven Bedingfield (Grey Holiday)
