Arise
I will arise!
Rise! Rise! Rise!
I will arise!
Show me who you really are.
Show me that youâre not someone
Who would cast out their young
And leave them behind
And Iâll try, Iâll try to be reasoning.
Iâll try to forget you abandoned me
On the shallow shores Iâm tied to the ocean floor
For the current to take me away.
You want to say youâre wrong and now itâs just too late.
You tried to leave me behind, stranded in the tide.
You want to say youâre wrong and now itâs just too late.
You canât call me your own I wonât be disowned.
I must arise, pulling myself through the tide.
I will arise!
You thought you left me there to die,
But I made it through the tide.
Rise! Rise! Rise!
Made it through the tide.
Rise! Rise! Rise!
Iâm not drowning, youâre just broken.
I can mend you and forgive this moment.
You want to say youâre wrong and now itâs just too late.
You tried to leave me behind, stranded in the tide.
You want to say youâre wrong and now itâs just too late.
You canât call me your own, you wanted me gone.
I will carry myself alone again,
From where you left me to sink or swim.
Thereâs no making this right.
Whatâs done is done.
You want to say youâre wrong.
How could you call me your son?
I saw the waves trying to pull me in.
I broke the tide.
I will arise!
Rise! Rise! Rise!
I will arise!
Rise! Rise! Rise!
I will arise!
