Rise Above
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Jealous cowards try to control
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
They distort what we say
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Try and stop what we do
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
When they can't do it themselves
Rise Above
We're gonna rise above
We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us it's no use
Society's arms of control
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Think they're smart
Can't think for themselves
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Laugh at us
Behind our backs
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
I find satisfaction
In what they lack
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us it's no use
We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us it's no use
We are born with a chance
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
I am gonna have my chance
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
We are born with a chance
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
And I am gonna have my chance
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us it's no use
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
We're gonna rise above
We're gonna rise above
