Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G]Lost in the shadows, [C]caught in the night
[Em]Dreaming of colors, [D]bursting in flight
[G]We are the voices, [C]refusing to hide
[Em]Painting the grey skies, [D]with our vibrant light
(Chorus)
[G]This is our Rainbow Revolt, [C]against the monochrome
[Em]Splashing our dreams in every tone, [D]making this world our own
[G]This is our Rainbow Revolt, [C]it’s time to awaken
[Em]No more chains, we won’t be shaken, [D]our spirit will not be broken
(Verse 2)
[G]Through the smoke and mirrors, [C]we will arise
[Em]In the face of fear, [D]we’ll touch the skies
[G]With every color, [C]we refuse to fade
[Em]In the canvas of the world, [D]our rebellion is displayed.
(Chorus)
[G]This is our Rainbow Revolt, [C]against the monochrome
[Em]Splashing our dreams in every tone, [D]making this world our own
[G]This is our Rainbow Revolt, [C]we won’t be silenced
[Em]We’ll sing our truth, in defiance, [D]our song is our resilience.
