Beyonce - Spirit Lyrics

Beyonce Lyrics

"Spirit"
(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Uishi kwa muda mrefu mfalme
(Uishi kwa uishi kwa)
Uishi kwa muda mrefu mfalme
(Uishi kwa, uishi kwa)

Yeah, yeah, and the wind is talking
Yeah, yeah, for the very first time
With a melody that pulls you towards it
Painting pictures of paradise

Saying rise up
To the light in the sky, yeah
Watch the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night, whoa

Spirit, watch the heavens open (Open)
Yeah
Spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah

Yeah, yeah, and the water's crashing
Trying to keep your head up high
While you're trembling, that's when the magic happens
And the stars gather by, by your side

Saying rise up
To the light in the sky, yeah
Let the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night, yeah

Spirit, watch the heavens open (Open)
Yeah
Spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah

Your destiny is coming close
Stand up and fight

So go into that far off land
And be one with the great "I Am", "I Am"
A boy becomes a man, whoa

Spirit, watch the heavens open (Open)
Yeah
Spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah
Spirit, yeah, watch the heavens open, open
Yeah
Spirit, spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah

Your destiny is coming close
Stand up and fight

So go into a far off land
And be one with the great "I Am"

'Spirit' was released on 07/10/2019 following the Disney film's exclusive premiere. Beyoncé, Ilya Salmanzadeh and Labrinth wrote and produced the song.

Disney announced on Twitter on the 9th of July 2019, "'The Lion King: The Gift,' an album featuring global artists and steeped in the sounds of Africa, produced and curated by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, will release 7/19. 'Spirit,' the single from the album and soundtrack for The Lion King, will be available tonight."

Beyoncé told about the whole 'The Lion King' soundtrack and this song in particular, "I wanted to put everyone on their own journey to link the storyline. Each song was written to reflect the film's storytelling that gives the listener a chance to imagine their own imagery, while listening to a new contemporary interpretation. It was important that the music was not only performed by the most interesting and talented artists but also produced by the best African producers. Authenticity and heart were important to me."
