I can see your smile I remember   Tears run down my face I surrender   We die tomorrow we dance in the rain and   There is no end we fly on forever      I can take the fight   I can make it right   I can stand alone   Strength is on my own      I screamed, I begged, I prayed   I lost, I gave, I paid   You take, you're fake, I hate   I cried but still I rise       A thousand days have gone and I still try   I have no faith my hands have been tied from   We have to fight survive or we die for   How long we live in dreams that we run from      I can justify   Can you judge my life?   I can free your mind   I will set you free      I screamed, I begged, I prayed   I lost, I gave, I paid   You take, you're fake, I hate   I cried but still I rise       I screamed, I begged, I prayed   I lost, I gave, I paid   You take, you're fake, I hate   I cried but still I rise
