We Will Rise Lyrics

(We will rise, oh)

Man, thinking about these days, these days

I say the same words I hear them echo as they delay

Promises never kept but overspoken, as I mouth your praise

Deception got me sinning, jumping hoops in Cirque du Soleil

I stand by the river but not the same words I relay

I still can't see the difference from backsliding and tryna relate

I fell down 7 times just to return to Temple stays

Where I correlate Yeshua's Love with no matter where I lay

Where she going?

Confetti paves the start of a parade

And the stars that I clung to shot back and triggers ricochets

My pride become my enemy, shot down my humility

My envy fill my enmity, deplete all my energy

What it all comes to, when I'm walking with you Lord

I must devote my mind, my time, my life wielding your sword

Oh the Spirit gives me peace, healing scars that've been worn

Your Spirit is my haven amidst long fights in dead of war

Been a while since I've been up

Oh, there must be a reason

Road is narrow and it's steep up

I've picked up my cross this season

And though I've fallen 7 times

The Spirit's inside

Though I've fallen 7 times

We will rise

We will rise

We will rise

We will rise

First fall at 12, a death wish I muttered

Called out to voids, I yelled at my mother

Down bad while high, the tree made me slumber

I fell asleep for too long, was molested by a brother

Five stories, now, my feet swing, I sit for a number

I'm pulled in by gravity, 6 feet deep had me wonder

I fought for so long, I mirrored midnight marauders

'Till I stumbled 7 times, still Heaven came to conquer

Been a while since I've been up

Oh, there must be a reason

Road is narrow and it's steep up

I've picked up my cross this season

And though I've fallen 7 times

The Spirit's inside

Though I've fallen 7 times

We will rise

We will rise

We will rise

We will rise

We will rise, we will rise

There ain't no staying down, we won't be backing down

We will rise, we will rise

We call our Savior now, we give Him praise so loud

Say to the Lord, "Our refuge, our rock, in whom we trust"

Been a while since I've been up

Oh, there must be a reason

Road is narrow and it's steep up

I've picked up my cross this season

And though I've fallen 7 times

The Spirit's inside

Though I've fallen 7 times
