You Will Rise by Sweetback
You Will Rise lyrics
Ooohhhhhh....
Yeah, yeah
I gotta a story that must be heard,
About a little girl who wished she was a bird.
She was unhappy livin' in a ghetto cage,
But it gave her hope when her sweet grandma would say:
[Baby, you will rise.]
...Rise!
[Limit is the skies.]
...The skies.
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
...Nobody...fill your head with lies.
[Baby, you will rise.]
...Rise
[Never compromise.]
...Compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
...Waitin� for you....other side.
Yeah
She had a burnin' desire to go far,
And she had lively hopes of reaching every star.
One day she'd leave this place,
But never forget her fateful space.
And when she found her dreams,
She'd come back and proclaim!
Yeah...
[Baby, you will rise.]
[Limit is the skies.]
...The skies.
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
...Nobody...fill your head with lies.
[Baby, you will rise.]
...Rise
[Never compromise.]
...Compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
...Waitin� for you....other side
you will rise....
[Baby, you will rise.]
...You will rise
[Limit is the skies.]
...Skies
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
...Don't you let no body....lies
[Baby, you will rise.]
...You will rise
[Never compromise.]
...Never compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
..Wilk and honey...waitin' waitin'
[Baby, you will rise.]
You will rise!
[Limit is the skies.]
Limit is the sky!
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
Don�t you let nobody....fill you head with their lies
[Never compromise.]
Never compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
