And Still I Rise
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies
You may trot me in the very dirt
But still, like air, I'll rise
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Just like moons and like suns
With the certainty of tides
Just like hopes springing high
Still like air I'll rise
You may shoot me with your words
You may cut me with your eyes
You may kill me with your hatefulness
But still, like air, I'll rise
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Just like moons and like suns
With the certainty of tides
Just like hopes springing high
Still like air I'll rise
With your bitter, twisted lies
You may trot me in the very dirt
But still, like air, I'll rise
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Just like moons and like suns
With the certainty of tides
Just like hopes springing high
Still like air I'll rise
You may shoot me with your words
You may cut me with your eyes
You may kill me with your hatefulness
But still, like air, I'll rise
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Just like moons and like suns
With the certainty of tides
Just like hopes springing high
Still like air I'll rise
