Still I Rise |
I’m fallin', ah, ah |
I’m fallin' |
I’m fallin', ah, ah |
I’m fallin' |
I’m fallin' |
Uh, memories of Langston on my lips |
When I was convinced that river asked me for a kiss |
Couldn’t unblock my life |
Couldn’t unlock my bliss |
And who are they to say I’m not allowed to call it quits |
I don’t know why I romanticise |
And fantasize crossing to the other side |
I guess the world I’ve had enough of it |
Got that young blood and they just want a cup of it |
Couldn’t stop for Death so he kindly stopped for me |
The carriage held with just ourselves and immortality |
That was Emily but I feel like I wrote it |
So I quote it, just a poet |
Writing my chapter to close it |
And still, I rise |
I rise (x2) |
'Cause you can write me down in history and seal it with the lies |
Like the sun and the tide I will rise |
And still I rise (x2) (i rise x2) |
There’s no need to disguise |
You can see it in my eyes |
Like the dust I will rise |
I rise (x2) |
Momma I just wanna talk to you |
I know it’s been a long time but |
But I got this on my heart |
Just listen, uh |
Memories of what he did to me |
Stolen innocence, he was akin to me |
I had to leave, you found it hard to believe |
Because he was the husband that you wanted to please |
But you should have protected me |
And, mommy, when you didn’t, you neglected me |
Now I ain’t even got respect for me |
Sleeping with a bad man when you should have been next to me |
I don’t really know what happened to us |
And I’m hoping maybe one day we can get back in touch |
Until then, I keep you in my prayers and such |
And for the record, man, I miss you so much |
(still I rise) |
And still, I rise |
I rise (x2) |
'Cause you can write me down in history and seal it with the lies |
Like the sun and the tide I will rise |
And still I rise (x2) (i rise x2) |
There’s no need to disguise |
You can see it in my eyes |
Like the dust I will rise |
I rise (x2) |
I can feel my heart healing |
Feel my heart healing (x3) |
I can feel it |
And still, I rise |
I rise (x2) |
'Cause you can write me down in history and seal it with the lies |
Like the sun and the tide, I will rise |
And still I rise (x2) (i rise x2) |
There’s no need to disguise |
You can see it in my eyes |
Like the dust I will rise |
I rise (x2) |
