josiah tha great - rise lyrics
[intro]
oh, oh, oh, yeah
yeah, yeah
mmm
[chorus]
i’m so tired of the same, gotta change
victory’s within our grasp, it’s in our hands
four+hundred years of depression and the pain
we will rise
we gon’ rise
we gon’ rise, yeah
we gon’ rise, yeah
oh, rise
yeah, yeah
[verse]
just because i’m black doesn’t mean that i’m a threat
we get shot down like a dog, used to get hung by the neck
i put my hands up, you still shoot, but you demand my respect
your job’s to be a hero, so thе word just serve and protect
but instеad you put us down
down on our knees and handcuffs
it’s hard for me to breathe, officer please stand up
i didn’t do nothin’ but reach for my id
now i’m on the news with people that’s lookin’ just like me
my skin color, it ain’t a weapon
i’m black, and that’s a blessin’
together we all are brethren
we soldiers who just keep steppin’
we gon’ rise, we gon’ rise
we gon’ shine, it’s our time
from the dark to the light
keep your head up
keep your head up
[chorus]
i’m so tired of the same, gotta change
victory’s within our grasp, it’s in our hands
four+hundred years of depression and the pain
we will rise
we gon’ rise
we gon’ rise, yeah
we gon’ rise
oh, rise
yeah
