I'Ll Rise

through the smoke out of the devil's Hell I sought for peace when times get slow you will never know until you try stop lying to yourself putting that book right back on the shelf We each move to slow in society's vast undertoe people telling you which way you should go these are desolate times yet we settle for ill but faded rhymes can't we read between the lines for years you pushed me underneath the rug carrying not about me with love yet I'll rise through the noise pollution willing to start a new revolution a tug at the heart will light the spark to where I need to go sometimes I feel like I'm in prison in cell block number seven it's not a one time shopping event at your local seven eleven I'll rise from the shadow of darkened confusion I'll rise out of the furnace of affliction With my hope in the Lord & heaven up above There is nothing I can't do in this life You can beat me & put me down but I'll never wear my head down in a from only one life is soon to be passed only what's done out of love will last lift your voice up so you can be heard listen to the heart of love by accepting every word
