See the nation through the people's eyes
See tears that flow like rivers from the skies

Those who never heard your cries
You shall rise
You shall rise
And look toward the skies
Where others fail, you prevail in time
You shall rise

You shall rise (x3)

[Verse 2:]
See the nation through the people's eyes
See tears that flow like rivers from the skies

Where others turn and sigh
You shall rise
You shall rise
You shall rise

(You may never know
If you lay low, lay low)

Sooner or later we must try... Livin'
