You Will Rise

I got a story that must be heard,
 About a little girl who wished she was a bird
 She was unhappy livin' in her ghetto cage,
 But it gave her hope when her sweet grandma would say:
 (Baby, you will rise)
 Rise
 (Limit is the skies)
 The skies
 (Don't let nobody fill your head with their lies)
 Nobody. fill your head with lies
 (Baby, you will rise)
 Rise
 (Never compromise)
 Compromise
 (Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side)
 Waitin' for you on the other side
 Yeah
 She had a burning desire to go far,
 And she had lively hopes of reaching every star
 One day she'd leave this place,
 But never forget her people's face
 And when she found her dreams,
 She'd come back and proclaim:
 (Baby, you will rise)
 Rise
 (Limit is the skies)
 The skies
 (Don't let nobody fill your head with their lies)
 Nobody. fill your head with lies
 (Baby, you will rise)
 Rise
 (Never compromise)
 Compromise
 (Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side)
 Waitin' for you on the other side
 You will rise.
 (Baby, you will rise)
 Rise
 (Limit is the skies)
 The skies
 (Don't let nobody fill your head with their lies)
 Nobody. fill your head with lies
 (Baby, you will rise)
 Rise
 (Never compromise)
 Compromise
 (Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side)
 Waitin' for you on the other side
 Got a burning in my heart,
 To keep it real and do my part
 Got a burning in my soul,
 To recognize where I'm from, yeah
 Got a burning in my heart,
 To keep it real and do my part
 Got a burning in my soul
 To recognize where I'm from, yeah
