Rise Up Lyrics by Doeman

2019

[Intro]
(Stand)
We must rise up, uh
And they pray on our demise but
Rise up, uh
Uh

[Verse 1]
They play with our minds, try to disintegrate us
You never conquer, you just cancer, you an imitator
I know my vision's greater, my peace is my stimulator
My niece my defibrillator, make a change and get the paper
My ancestors all spinnin' inside they grave 'cause
We've been blind forever, now our souls cannot be saved
We were kings, they made us slaves, they genocide us to our graves
I got rage inside my veins, your pale face should be afraid, mmm
They try to kill us off, eradicate our memory
Take our women and abolish us from history
My words are like a bomb threat, my peace, we ain't find yet
We were trained like dogs, that's why we got slave mindsets
Go to work and obey 'em, get you a weekly check
Spend it all at they stores and that's your weekly flex
How they sell us all this land when they ain't own it first?
We was kings, we was queens, we was chosen first

[Chorus]
Rise up (Stand up), rise up (Hands up), rise up (Man up)
Open your mind and your eyes up
Rise up (Stand up), rise up (Hands up), rise up (Man up)
Open your mind and your eyes up

[Verse 2]
Uh, God has risen and livid because the children
We do more killing than healin', we glorify all the villains
We put power in them people, they use it for their evil
They tell us that we equal, shit, it's just another sequel, look
If we don't know our history, how could we ever change it?
We was bred for greatness, we gotta escape the slave ship
Make the struggle make sense, make the profit make flips
We ain't cast a vote and now our president is racist
We fought their wars, they still treat us like we're immigrants
They stole our culture, raped our women, took their innocence
I'm not an activist, really I'm just passionate
To give you knowledge that my soul inside these passages
They fled us into poverty, they treat it like Monopoly
Let's make 'em understand that we're people, not property
Uh, I place my heart over these instrumentals
I'm preaching change while rockin' chains, that shit is detrimental
They took our gold and then they turned it into currency
If we ain't pray to they God, it was a murder scene
We must take the power pack for their sacrifice
Black and brown royalty, we got braggin' rights
Kings and queens, pick your head up, pick your eyes up
Stand together through whatever, we must rise up

[Outro]
Rise up (Stand up), rise up (Hands up), rise up (Man up)
Open your mind and your eyes up
Rise up
