Rise - By Yoko Kanno
Yoko Kanna, that genious song writer, has written many anime begining and end themes. From Cowboy Bebop to Ghost In The Shell, she has left her mark in the industry. Here is one of my favorite songs she has written.

Rise

I'm a soldier, and that means
I'm both defendant and judge
I am standing on the two ends of fire
Bending over the steep turns, overtaking death and life
I'm running to fight the shadow of the lies

No matter how much threads deceit weaves
The truth will show the face of light

*Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we are soldiers stand or die

Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall

I'm a soldier, born to stand
in this waking hell I am
witnessing more than I can compute

pray myself we don't forget
lies, betrayed and the oppressed
please give me the strength to be the truth

people facing the fire together
if we don't, we'll lose all we have found

*repeat

Chase the dream to the edge of the abyss
This is the only way to save the world

Don't you cry,
Hide your tears
Because there'll be a new day
Your fire
Will be heating
Thousands of hearts
Now, rise up
Hide your pain and fear far off
The one who is right will win
Remember, everything is in your hands

*repeat
