Rise

So much pain We don? t know how to be but angry Feel infected like we? ve got gangrene Please don? t let anybody try to change me Me, just me, in the middle of a sea full of faces Full of faces, some laugh, some salivate What? s in your alleyway Recycling bins or bullet cases? It? s not equal, it? s not fair We? re different people but we're not scared We ain? t never scared to pave a new path Make a new street, build a new Say, can you see by the dawns early light? Free slaves running, songs words weren? t right Now, a new days coming The few stay stunning while the many are handsome Your soul is alive but they want it for ransom The bass drumming is the anthem We step to the heartbeats Of our granddaughters and grandsons And Rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Lost hope and found need Grounded by our surroundings Did the walls scream, universities Or you and I the tees? React, automatic and we burst when squeezed And make 9-11 each emergency Urgency, amber to red like the turning leaves Oh please, let the hurting cease Don? t let apathy police the populace We will march across Those stereotypes that were marked for us The answer's obvious, we switch the consonants And change the sword to words and lift continents Rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise Together we rise, together we rise If you believe in redemption (Rise, rise) I? m calling to you from another dimension (Rise, rise) If you believe in redemption (Rise, rise) I? m calling to you from another dimension (Rise, rise) If you believe in redemption (Rise, rise) I? m calling to you from another dimension (Rise, rise) If you believe in redemption (Rise, rise) I? m calling to you from another dimension (Rise, rise)
