I Rise

Us kids don't know what we're talking about,

That we're too young to understand

How the government works. We call BS

I'm going through it

Yeah, I know you see the tragic in it

Just hold on to the little bit of magic in it

I can't break down now

I can't take that now

Died a thousand times

Managed to survive

I can't break down now

I can't take that

(I can't take that)

I rise

I rise

I rise up above it

Up above it

I rise

I rise

I rise

Up above it all

There's nothing you can do to me

That hasn't been done

Not bulletproof, should have run from a gun

River of tears ran dry

Let 'em run

No game that you can play with me

I ain't one

'Cause I'm going through it

Yeah, I know you see the tragic in it

Just hold on to the little bit of magic in it

I can't break down now

I can't take that now

Died a thousand times

Managed to survive

I can't break down now

I can't take that

(I can't take that)

I rise

I rise

I rise up above it

Up above it

I rise

I rise

I rise

Up above it all

I managed to survive

Freedom's what you choose to do

With what's been done to you

No one can hurt you now unless you want them to

No one can hurt you now unless you love 'em too

Unless you love 'em too

'Cause I'm going through it

Yeah, I know you see the tragic in it

Just hold on to the little bit of magic in it

I can't break down now

I can't take that

(I can't take that)

I rise

I rise

I rise up above it

Up above it

I rise

I rise

I rise

Up above it all

(Yeah, we gonna rise up)

(Yeah, we gonna get up)

(Yeah, we gonna get up)

(Yeah, we gonna get up)

Yes, we can

We can get it together

We'll rise up

We can get it together

(Yeah, we gonna rise up)

(Yeah, we gonna rise up)

(Yeah, we gonna get up)

(Yeah, we gonna get up)

(Yeah, we gonna get up)

Yes, we can

We can get it together

We'll rise up

We can get it together
