Stuart Matthewman - You Will Rise lyrics

I got a story that must be heard About a little girl who wished she was a bird She was unhappy livin' in her 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 nobody 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 on the other side Yeah She had a burning desire to go far And she had lively hopes of reaching every star One day she'd leave this place But never forget her people's face And when she found her dreams She'd come back and proclaim: (Baby, you will rise) Rise (Limit is the skies) The skies (Don't let nobody 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 on the other side You will rise (Baby, you will rise) Rise (Limit is the skies) The skies (Don't let nobody 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 on the other side Got a burning in my heart To keep it real and do my part Got a burning in my soul To recognize where I'm from, yeah Got a burning in my heart To keep it real and do my part Got a burning in my soul To recognize where I'm from, yeah
