Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(I) Am the nation, (I) Am a million
Faces formed together, made for elevation
(I) Am a soldier, (I) Won't surrender
Faith is like a fire that never burns to embers
[Verse 2]
(Who's gonna stand up, who's gonna fight?)
The voice of the unheard
(Who's gonna break these chains and lies?)
Love is the answer
[Verse 3]
I gotta speak it, believe it
That's how I feel inside
I, I, can't, can't sit here quiet
[Verse 4]
You can take my heart
You can take my breath
When you pry it from
My cold dead chest
[Verse 5]
This is how we rise up
Heavy as a hurricane
Louder than a freight train
This is how we rise up
Heart is beating faster
Feels like thunder
[Verse 6]
Magic, static, call me a fanatic
It's our world, they can never have it
This is how we rise up
[Verse 7]
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
[Verse 8]
Can you hear me? Are you listening?
Sleeping in the shadows, could be making history
Through the fire, on the water
Used to be a slave but now you are a conqueror
[Verse 9]
They can take my heart
They can take my breath
When they pry it from
My cold dead chest
[Verse 10]
This is how we rise up
Heavy as a hurricane
Louder than a freight train
This is how we rise up
Heart is beating faster
Feels like thunder
[Verse 11]
Magic, static, call me a fanatic
It's our world, they can never have it
This is how we rise up
[Verse 12]
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
[Verse 13]
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
[Verse 14]
Rising up, up, up, up, up
We're rising up, up, up, up, up
The voice of the unheard
Rising up, up, up, up, up
We're rising up, up, up, up, up
Love is the answer
Rising up, up, up, up, up
We're rising up, up, up, up, up
Love is the answer
This is how we rise up
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
[Verse 15]
This is how we rise up
Heavy as a hurricane
Louder than a freight train
This is how we rise up
Heart is beating faster
Feels like thunder
[Verse 16]
Magic, static, call me a fanatic
It's our world, they can never have it
This is how we rise up
[Verse 17]
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
[Verse 18]
You can't resist us
You can't resist us
It's our resistance
You can't resist us
