Lyrics
Some people when they see us
They think that they can put us down
Well, here is a reminder:
From the ashes we still flourish.
Our essence is resistance
We're daughters of resilience
Again, this is a reminder:
From the ashes we still flourish.
Our skin has been a battlefield
These beauty scars will bring us here
At this moment, we're gathering our strength together.
Hey! We're glowing today
We care and we learn from each other
and healing our deepest wounds.
So hey! We're rising today
Demanding our right to exist
We're proud of our blackness and we're gonna hold our head high
We claim reparation
We’re rewritting our history again
Yes, this is a reminder:
From the ashes we still flourish
We're here to celebrate ourselves
To our ancestors we give thanks
Again, this is a reminder;
From the ashes we still flourish
Hey! We're glowing today
We care and we learn from each other
and healing our deepest wounds.
So hey! We're rising today
Demanding our right to exist
We're gonna hold our head up high
Hey! We're glowing today
We care and we learn from each other
and healing our deepest wounds.
So hey! We're rising today
Demanding our right to exist
We're proud of our blackness and we're gonna hold our head high
Today we lift up our voices
Our power is unlimited
We'll keep celebrating
Our lives and our existence
