We Rise

Sister of my tears
 Sister of my cries
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 We rise, we rise, we rise
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 Sister of my tears
 Sister of my cries
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 We rise, we rise, we rise
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 A mother's dream
 A daughter's love
 A sister's will that will be done
 Our voices raised together will
 Do the work of a million guns
 Sister of my blood
 Sister of my heart
 Although the miles may separate us
 We can't stand apart
 Apart, apart, apart
 Although the miles may separate us
 We can't stand apart
 Steel tempered in the fire of fear
 Strength tested in the dark of hate
 We had it in us all along
 It isn't, never, won't be too late
 Sister in my joy
 Sister in my pain
 The woman's burden placed upon us
 Time and time again
 Again, again, again
 The woman's burden placed upon us
 Time and time again
 Confused, abused, and used
 We looked to him for our salvation
 Not realising our own hands
 Will hold and shape a generation
 Sister of my tears
 Sister of my cries
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 We rise, we rise, we rise
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 Sister of my tears
 Sister of my cries
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 We rise, we rise, we rise
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 Sister of my tears
 Sister of my cries
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
 We rise, we rise, we rise
 Hand in hand we stand as one
 We push, we reach, we rise
