And (I Rise)
(And I) Rise

Verse 1:
And I rise, despite my incredible fears inside
I walk across the room with my own special dignity
As the heads turn, I keep on walking it's my turn
Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah…
Keep on walking straight on past, those insult glaring faces
Baby
Do I care what they all think of me
Do I care about all those insults right behind my back
No, no, no…

Chorus:
And I rise until I feel I can't go on much longer
How long will it take until my heart starts to beat stronger
And I'll keep rising till I feel like I'ma surrender
But I'll just rise until I feel safe and tender…

Verse 2:
Oh yeah, oh no…
Oh yeah, oh no…
My head is aching from everytime I hear their voices
I'm thinking I'ma keep on
going, I gotta make smart choices

But when they never stop I feel like I am going to die
And then the thoughts come rushing, why oh why!
Do I care what they all think of me
Do I care about those insults right behind me back
No, no, no…

Chorus:
And I rise until I feel I can't go on much longer
How long will it take until my heart starts to beat stronger
And I'll keep rising till I feel like I'ma surrender
But I'll just rise until I feel safe and tender…
(Repeat)

Bridge:
Oh yeah, I am feeling so alone
But I still got myself, I got my grace and tone
And I will keep on rising, till I reach my home!

Chorus:
And I rise until I feel I can't go on much longer
How long will it take until my heart starts to beat stronger
And I'll keep rising till I feel like I'ma surrender
But I'll just rise until I feel safe and tender…
(Repeat 2xs)
