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) |
