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 goin' 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 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 bullet-proof, shouldn't have to run from a gun

River of tears ran dry, let 'em run

No game that you can play with me I ain't won

'Cause I'm goin' 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 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 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 them too

Unless you love them too

'Cause I'm goin' 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 rise, I rise

I rise up above it, up above it

I rise, I rise

I rise up above it all

(Yeah, we're gonna rise up, yeah, we're gonna rise up)

(Yeah, we're gonna get up, yeah, we're gonna get up)

(Yeah, we're gonna get up)

Yes we can, we can get it together

We'll rise up, we can get it together

(Yeah, we're gonna rise up, yeah, we're gonna rise up)

(Yeah, we're gonna get up, yeah, we're gonna get up)

(Yeah, we're gonna get up)

Yes we can, we can get it together

We'll rise up, we can get it together
