You Will Rise |
I got a story that must be heard |
About a little girl who wished she was a bird |
She was unhappy livin' in her ghetto cage |
But it gave her hope when her sweet grandma would say: |
Baby, you will rise |
(Rise) |
Limit is the skies |
(The skies) |
Don’t let nobody fill your head with their lies |
(Nobody. fill your head with lies) |
Baby, you will rise |
(Rise) |
Never compromise |
(Compromise) |
Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side |
(Waitin' for you on the other side, yeah) |
She had a burning desire to go far (Far) |
And she had lively hopes of reaching every star |
One day she’d leave this place |
But never forget her people’s face |
And when she found her dreams |
She’d come back and proclaim: |
Baby, you will rise |
Limit is the skies |
(Skies) |
Don’t let nobody fill your head with their lies |
(Nobody, lies) |
Baby, you will rise |
(Rise) |
Never compromise |
(Compromise) |
Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side |
(Waitin', waitin' on the other side) |
You will rise |
Baby, you will rise |
(You will rise) |
Limit is the skies |
(Skies) |
Don’t let nobody fill your head with their lies |
(Don't you let nobody, lies) |
Baby, you will rise |
(You will rise) |
Never compromise |
(Never compromise) |
Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side |
(Milk and honey, waitin', waitin' for you) |
Baby, you will rise |
(You will rise) |
Limit is the skies |
(Limit is the sky) |
Don’t let nobody fill your head with their lies |
(Don't you let nobody fill your head with their lies) |
Baby, you will rise |
Never compromise |
(Never compromise) |
Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side |
Got a burning in my heart |
To keep it real and do my part |
I got a burning in my soul |
To recognize where I’m from, yeah |
I got a burning in my heart |
To keep it real and do my part |
I got a burning in my soul (In my soul) |
To recognize where I’m from, yeah (Keep it real) |
Got a burning in my heart |
(I recognize where I’m from, yeah) |
To keep it real and do my part |
I got a burning in my soul (Soul) |
To recognize where I’m from, yeah (Ah yeah) |
Ah yeah |
Ah yeah |
