Michael Franti & Spearhead - Rise Up Lyrics

Michael Franti & Spearhead Lyrics

"Rise Up"

Lookin' in the mirror, talkin' to my fear
You ain't comin' round today
You tried to hold me down
But listen to me now
Cause this is what I got to say

I'm gonna rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me
Rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me
Rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me back today

Love is like a lighter
Set my soul on fire
And I'm choosin' love today
I always been a fighter, not just a survivor
And this is what I got to say

I'm gonna rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me
Rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me
Rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me back today

Never gonna give up, nooo
Never gonna give up, noo
Never gonna give up, nooo
Never gonna give up, noo

I'm gonna rise up, rise up (never gonna give up, nooo)
I'm gonna rise up, rise up (never gonna give up, noo)
I'm gonna rise up, rise up (never gonna give up, nooo)
Nothing's gonna hold me back today

I'm gonna rise up, rise up (rise up, rise up)
Rise up, rise up (rise up, rise up)
Rise up, rise up
Nothings gonna hold me back today

Never gonna give up, nooo
Never gonna give up, noo
I'm gonna rise up
I'm gonna rise up
I'm gonna rise up, rise up
Nothing's gonna hold me back today
