(ahh) Late train hum and the sky cut blue
We got gold in the bruise Corner store sermon in a cold
stairwell Ten on my back and a story to tell
Mama said move with your chin held high Even when the rent
got loud at night I learned that grace got steel in it
Pain in the page,
put skill in it
Friends turn thin when the checks run low Still I bring light
where the cracked blocks glow I don't talk big,
I just build my lane Dust on my shoes,
but I still make rain
Hold on,
don't let the night decide We bend,
we don't break inside One breath and the whole world shifts
Your name in the dark still lifts We swing wide from the
edge of the fall Hands in the air like we answer the
call You and I make a way through the spin If the
door won't move, we are getting in Rise with me,
rise with me now
Love make thunder, we don't bow
They want the clean cut version of truth But the roots got
dirt and the dirt made proof
I seen fear put a tax on speech So I wrote my
fire where the kids could reach
Girl on the hook got stars in her tone
I bring the grit and she carries it home Violin cry with
the kick and snare
Whole room lean when we throw that dare I said hold me
steady
You said never fold
I said hearts get heavy
You said turn it gold We swing wide from the edge of
the fall Hands in the air like we answer the call You
and I make a way through the spin If the door
won't move, we are getting in
Rise with me, rise with me now Love make thunder,
we don't bow
We don't bow
We rise somehow (ahh)
