Lyrics

We gon' rise, we gon take

we gon shine, we won't break

We gon' cry, but we gon shake

We won't die, they gon hate

We gon' rise, we gon take

we gon shine, we won't break

We gon' cry, but we gon shake

We won't die, they gon hate



Verse 1) I'm not trying be pretentious, But this right here's a message

They'll try to shoot me, so salute me when you receive the lesson

They still think we're not nothing, til we give them something

And we're the reason why the whole world is jumping

They love what we do for them, but hate that we exist

They want us dead or somewhere stranded in an abyss

Then they want to take our culture from us, saying that they made it

The fact that they'll do so much to us just show that we're the greatest

Let's start off with the crack epidemic many were affected

Who would've thought it would get worse when Clinton was elected

They used us as lab rats and took out a whole city

There's a reason we can't trust nobody when it's silly

They took Dr. Martin, and they took out Malcolm X

George Stinny, Trayvonne Martin, I'm scared who else is next

They want us eradicated and they still will try

But as long as we stick together we're still gonna rise


We gon' rise, we gon take

we gon shine, we won't break

We gon' cry, but we gon shake

We won't die, they gon hate

We gon' rise, we gon take

we gon shine, we won't break

We gon' cry, but we gon shake

We won't die, they gon hate



I love everybody, but I gotta rep for my people

Cause once upon a time we weren't considered people

Their actions were so deadly man, those punishments were lethal

Here we in 24 still making sure we're equal

They make us seem like we're crazy or trying to play the victim

But just think about the facts we've been fighting against the system

They want us to hate each other, men, women, and babies

It's sad that it's working, don't you find it crazy

That they see us as their biggest threat, maybe cause we're stronger

They said our culture is a fad it won't be here much longer

Now look at us thriving and changing the whole world

Bringing all colors together every boy, every girl

Are starting to stand by us, and some wants to sabotage us

That won't stop nothing cause if anything we got us

My fist in the air and middle finger to others

I'm young, black, and great, so are the rest of my sisters and brothers
