I Will Rise

I will rise... Wacked & blown away in history, With ploys impish & lies Sunk deep in muck, mines and lands dirty I will I promise from the dust, rise Did you want my spirit all broke Lowered head & crying eyes Dropping shoulders & face wet with soak I will I promise from the dust, rise Like the stars & the moon As sure as the incoming tide, With no hopes that will swoon I will I promise from the dust, rise From all shame , I will rise, From the past ,I will rise, From the darkness, I will rise, Into the daylight, I will rise. Bringing gifts I have attained I will rise, Once more I will rise.
