Rise above, gonna start the war!
Oh, what you want, what you need
What'd you come here for?
Well, an eye for an eye and an 'F' for a fight
They're taking me down as the prisoners riot
Yeah, yeah
Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
With lights turned up, it's hard to hide
Sometimes I want to disappear
When I feel kinda bad and don't want to stress
I just pass it off on ability
Well you got what you want, what you never knew
A perfect gift from me to you
Yeah yeah yeah
Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
With lights turned up, it's hard to hide
Sometimes I want to disappear
(Raise up to your ability)
Never knew that I could find
What could come when they realize
I don't know how to compromise
(Raise up to your ability)
Get scared when I disappear
Running around before I count those years
Like I'm someone who lost their way
(Raise up to your ability)
I know that you want it
Just, its too soon to see
of one's ability
(Raise up to your ability)
Yeah you're undecided
It's so hard to see them
but I don't wanna run away
Focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Gotta focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Then they can't get what they want to steal
Can't get what they want to steal
Then they can't get what they want to steal
Can't get what they want to steal
Oh, what you want, what you need
What'd you come here for?
Well, an eye for an eye and an 'F' for a fight
They're taking me down as the prisoners riot
Yeah, yeah
Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
With lights turned up, it's hard to hide
Sometimes I want to disappear
When I feel kinda bad and don't want to stress
I just pass it off on ability
Well you got what you want, what you never knew
A perfect gift from me to you
Yeah yeah yeah
Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
With lights turned up, it's hard to hide
Sometimes I want to disappear
(Raise up to your ability)
Never knew that I could find
What could come when they realize
I don't know how to compromise
(Raise up to your ability)
Get scared when I disappear
Running around before I count those years
Like I'm someone who lost their way
(Raise up to your ability)
I know that you want it
Just, its too soon to see
of one's ability
(Raise up to your ability)
Yeah you're undecided
It's so hard to see them
but I don't wanna run away
Focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Gotta focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Then they can't get what they want to steal
Can't get what they want to steal
Then they can't get what they want to steal
Can't get what they want to steal

Fear will make a person compromise and reach lower than they ought to. But nobody should fear when they've got abilities other's do not have. Gotta find your niche is all.
The first time I noticed this song was on a Taco Bell commercial. I heard the opening beat, thought it sounded familiar and realized, much to my surprise or horror (I'm not sure which emotion to go with yet LOL) it was made by the band.
I thought, for sure, FTP would be a one hit wonder but after hearing so many great singles on the radio, which convinced me to buy their album, and so many brilliant tracks on their CD they are for real!
1. When phone rang, it's from 911 telling her that her boyfriend were dead.
2. The girl cry, deep sadness.
3. Her boyfriend were able to go inside her girlfriend's house to see what her girlfriend were doing.
4. Lastly, her girlfriend were able to see him again?
Anyway, if I'm not mistake, i think the guy in the Official Video is Mark Foster, the singer. I hope the lady was me. LOL. Just joking, anyway, I'm a foster child forever. :-)

and here's how it goes
1: They are practicing for a concert the next day, when the stage lights and equipment fall on them and they die, bringing panic to the producers.
2: They try different ways of bringing them "alive", but settle on making them robots
3: They perform like boy bands do, which is so not the real FTP, and the crowd goes wild
4: They celebrate the success of the concert with some fans, and the fans don't notice the real FTP members are dead on the couch.
these words get overused
when WE get up and over it and over them
up and over it and them
i know you feel it too
these words get overused
when YOU get up and over it and over them
oh oh, hell no
oh oh, hell no.
i think this is a case of cryptomnesia.

Rise above, gonna start the war!
Oh, what you want, what you need, what'd you come here for?
Well, an eye for an eye and an 'f' for fight
They're taking me down as the prisoners riot
Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
With the lights turned up, it's hard to hide
Sometimes I want to disappear
When I feel kinda bad and don't want to stress
I just pass it off on ability
Well you got what you want, what you never knew
It's a perfect gift from me to you
Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
With the lights turned up, it's hard to hide
Sometimes I want to disappear
(Raise up to your ability)
You never knew that I could find
What could come when we realize
Some won't stop with the compromise
(Raise up to your ability)
Can't stand when i disappear
Runnin around i'm filled with fear
I can't do it cause my lifes a wreeeck
(Raise up to your ability)
I know that you wanna
Throw me into the Sea
For my ability
(Raise up to your ability)
Yeah i don't want (to) decide it
Yeah just want to leave it
IIiii just wanna walk(says run sometimes) away
(Raise up to your ability)
You gotta focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Now focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Then they can't get what they want to steal
Can't get what they want to steal
So here's those lyrics clarified in a few places.
