lyrics

i am the prince that nobody knows
crown off my head and holes in my royal robes
robbers have come and stolen the wealth from my kingdom
younger men enjoy all of the women

my subjects have all left the land
the princess i chose she left with another man
this does not mean i will forget just who i am
i must rise up and reclaim my crown

rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
'cause nobody knows...

i'm walking thru summer with all of my friends
the raven, the hawk and the blue heron
the black bear, the red fox, the cotton tailed deer
i'll gather my strength from the strength that's already here

rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
'cause nobody knows...

the colours are brilliant here in the autumn
the poplar turns golden, the maple turns auburn
the seasons come and the seasons go
i'll plant my seed and thus i will grow

rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
'cause nobody knows...

prince, you awoke this morning in the north country...

rise up, rise up, rise up and grow
rise up, rise up, rise up and grow

i am the prince that nobody knows
crown off my head and holes in my royal robes
robbers have come and stolen the wealth from my kingdom
i must rise up and reclaim this land for my children
