Rise
I won’t just surviveOh, you will see me thriveCan’t write my storyI’m beyond the archetype
I won’t just conformNo matter how you shake my core‘Cause my roots they run deep, oh
Oh, ye of so little faithDon’t doubt it, don’t doubt itVictory is in my veinsI know it, I know itAnd I will not negotiateI’ll fight it, I’ll fight itI will transform
When, when the fire’s at my feet againAnd the vultures all start circlingThey’re whispering, "You’re out of time”But still I rise
This is no mistake, no accidentWhen you think the final nail is inThink againDon’t be surprisedI will still rise
I must stay consciousThrough the madness and chaosSo I call on my angelsThey say
Oh, ye of so little faithDon’t doubt it, don’t doubt itVictory is in your veinsYou know it, you know itAnd you will not negotiateJust fight it, just fight itAnd be transformed
‘Cause when, when the fire’s at my feet againAnd the vultures all start circlingThey’re whispering, "You’re out of time”But still I rise
This is no mistake, no accidentWhen you think the final nail is inThink againDon’t be surprisedI will still rise
Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt itOh, oh, oh, ohYou know it, you know itStill riseJust fight it, just fight itDon’t be surprisedI will still rise
