The Flobots filmed a music video for this song on July 6, 2008, at the Gothic theater In Denver, Colorado. The video shows a rock concert intermixed with scenes of pro-American posters and people working to make the world a better place, such as planting trees and committing random acts of kindness. The video features almost everyone in some form of American Flag bandanna, much like the cover for Flobot's album "Fight with Tools." In the video, multiple references are made to the website americawillbe.org, a pro-peace website dedicated to the visions of what people want USA to be.
On September 13, 2008, "Rise" charted on the Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks at number 36. So far, the song has peaked at number 33.

The Bewitched (French: L'Ensorcelée) is an 1852 novel by the French writer Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly. The narrative is set in Normandy in the early 19th century. It tells the story of a young woman, married to a farmer ruined by the French Revolution, who falls in love with a priest and commits suicide when the infatuation comes to nothing. Her widowed husband then sets out to kill the priest out of jealousy.
The novel was the first in a suite of three novels which were set in Normandy and rooted in local folklore and legends. It was serialised in Journal l'Assemblée nationale in 1852 and published as a book in 1854. An English translation by Louise Collier Willcox was published in 1928.
Brian G. Rogers wrote in his 1967 book on Barbey d'Aurevilly: "L'Ensorcelée, with its real and symbolic landscapes, its well-organised plot and its regionalistic flavour, is one of Barbey d'Aurevilly's most successful novels. Largely free from the repetitions and stylistic errors of the earlier works, it inaugurates the Normandy cycle with a flourish, and, with its parallel themes of passionate and 'satanic' possession, provides a further commentary on its author's evolving attitude to his continuing preoccupations."
Demonic evil. Blessed are those who deny the beast. For he devours and will destroy all he sees. Ruler of darkness - he is the father of lies. Controls the armies of the earth. Aims to bring the world's demise. And his ambitions will serve to feed his greed. The great deceiver hides intentions to crush the weak. The false prophet convinced the masses to bow to his name. They embrace his darkness and they shall soon ascend in his flames. The beast has been allowed to make war on the saints, and has been given power over all nations. All who dwell on earth will worship the beast. Now appears seven angels to unleash plagues on the earth to cleanse and to purify. Destroy prophets of a false church. The seas shall turn to blood, the armies of the beast shall fall. Final war in the age of man - the last judgment of us all. Crushed and destroyed. The beast thrown to the pit. Risen in the west. Thrown back into the abyss.
