Rise

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She wakes up with the sunrise, Dreams bigger than the street, With a fire in her heart, And a rhythm in her feet. They told her, “Know your place,” But she knows she was born to fly, Every tear upon her face Is another reason why. [Pre-Chorus] They can close a door, But they can't stop her knocking, They can silence words, But the heartbeat keeps talking. From Freetown to Bo, Let every young girl know, Your future is your own. [Chorus] Rise, girl, rise, Let your light fill the sky, No more hiding your dreams, No more asking them why. Rise, girl, rise, With your hands reaching high, From Freetown to Bo, You were born to rise. [Verse 2] She writes her name in bold, Turns the page and takes the lead, Makes a way for every sister, Plants a brave and lasting seed. When the road is steep and long, She remembers what she knows: Every step she takes today Makes a wider path to go. [Pre-Chorus] They can close a door, But they can't stop her knocking, They can silence words, But the heartbeat keeps talking. From Freetown to Bo, Let every young girl know, Your future is your own. [Chorus] Rise, girl, rise, Let your light fill the sky, No more hiding your dreams, No more asking them why. Rise, girl, rise, With your hands reaching high, From Freetown to Bo, You were born to rise. [Bridge] One voice becomes a hundred, One brave step becomes a road, Sisters standing side by side, Sharing every heavy load. Look ahead, the day is yours, Take the chance and claim your name, Every girl who dares to dream Can change the shape of things. [Final Chorus] Rise, girl, rise, Let your light fill the sky, No more hiding your dreams, No more asking them why. Rise, girl, rise, With your hands reaching high, From Freetown to Bo, You were born to rise. [Outro] Rise, girl, rise, Your future is your own.
