Where we grind, we we rise, we and then we rise again nigga, and then we again nigga Cuz real niggas take losses, and whine we get the up and get on our grind and we rise again nigga, and then we rise nigga I still I rise
[Outro: Dr. Maya
Out of the huts of history's shame, I rise
Up from a past that's rooted in pain, I rise
A black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear, I rise
Into a daybreak miraculously clear, I rise
Bringing the that my ancestors gave,
I am the hope and the dream of the slave And so naturally, I go rising.
