[Emma Gonzalez]

Us kids don't know what we're talking about

That we're too young to understand how the government works

We call BS!

[Madonna]

I'm going through it

Yeah, I know you see the tragic in it

Just hold on to the little bit of magic in it

I can't break down now

I can't take that now

Died a thousand times

Managed to survive

I can't break down now

I can't take that (I can't take that)

I rise

I rise

I rise up above it, up above it

I rise

I rise

I rise

Up above it all

There's nothing you can do to me that hasn't been done

Not bulletproof, shouldn't have to run from a gun

River of tears ran dry, let 'em run

No game that you can play with me, I ain't one

'Cause I'm going through it

Yeah, I know you see the tragic in it (alright)

Just hold on to the little bit of magic in it

I can't break down now

I can't take that now (I can't take that)

Died a thousand times

Managed to survive (I managed to survive)

I can't break down now

I can't take that (I can't take that)

(Rise)

I rise (I rise)

I rise (rise)

I rise up above it, up above it (rise)

I rise (I rise)

I rise (rise)

I rise

Up above it all

I managed to survive

Freedom's what you choose to do with what's been done to you

No one can hurt you now unless you want them to (unless you want)

No one can hurt you now unless you love 'em too (BS!)

Unless you love 'em too

'Cause I'm going through it

Yeah, I know you see the tragic in it

Just hold on to the little bit of magic in it (magic in it)

I can't break down now

I can't take that (I can't take that)

(Rise)

I rise (I rise)

I rise (rise)

I rise up above it, up above it (rise)

I rise (rise; gonna rise up)

I rise (rise; gonna get up)

I rise

Up above it all

Yeah, we gonna rise up

Yeah, we gonna rise up

Yeah, we gonna get up

Yeah, we gonna get up

Yeah, we gonna get up

Yes, we can

We can get it together

We'll rise up, we can get it together

Yeah, we gonna rise up

Yeah, we gonna rise up

Yeah, we gonna get up

Yeah, we gonna get up

Yeah, we gonna get up

Yes, we can

We can get it together

We'll rise up, we can get it together
