Rise (feat. Samm Henshaw)
For we have given all that we have
And it's still
Not enough
Hold up, wait a minute
Hold up, wait a minute
There's something I'd like to say, yeah (Mm)
Don't pretend that you ain't not in it
'Cause Lord knows we're all in it
We've all got a part to play, yeah
They want us in opposition
I got a proposition
Don't turn and look away, no (Mm)
You're awake but are you woke?
Actin' like this life's a joke
I'll ask but you ain't brave, no
This ain't not run through (Yeah)
This ain't no drill (Yeah)
You're slow to love, but quick to kill yeah
Let's learn to teach, trust each to feel yeah
Not tryin' to preach, just bein' real yeah
We will rise, we will rise
With the fire in our eyes yeah, yeah, yeah
With no hate in our hearts
And the future in our minds yeah, yeah, yeah
No answers with our questions
No questions been forgiven
'Cause everybody knows
It's the prices that we're livin'
We will rise, we will rise
With the fire in our eyes yeah, yeah, yeah
Now that I've got your attention
We can all feel the tension
I got somethin' to say yeah
It seems it's all the same
We got the letters not the words
Every day a new parade, yeah
We can hold our sides, we can shake our fists
If we're not allowed to speak, how can we resist?
We've all heard the rumors
We're the product, we're the illusionists
I'm not tryna preach but I won't be your king, Judah
We will rise, we will rise
With the fire in our eyes yeah, yeah, yeah
With no hate in our hearts
And the future in our minds yeah, yeah, yeah
No answers with our questions
No questions been forgiven
'Cause everybody knows
It's the price as that we're livin'
We will rise, we will rise
With the fire in our eyes yeah, yeah, yeah
Heads raised high
Like we're tryin to give some praise
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All we need
Is to believe that we'll be saved
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't believe we can't fight what we face
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody needs a little hope in their own way
Yeah
We will rise, we will rise
With the fire in our eyes yeah, yeah, yeah
With no hate in our hearts
And the future in our minds yeah, yeah, yeah
No answers with our questions
No questions been forgiven
'Cause everybody knows
It's the price as that we're livin'
We will rise, we will rise
With the fire in our eyes yeah, yeah, yeah
And it's still
Not enough
Hold up, wait a minute
Hold up, wait a minute
