I know that you made me to rise I need pain to feel alive when racism still alive I was told that life's a bitch, hope that she don't kill my vibe I've been still, but still, I rise Lots of things I feel inside Took some shots to still advise Your grace and will are still alive I can read again, believin' in the deeds amend Your likeness, we created it, it's where we begin Yeah, into the In your grace, I made peace You've got will, I've got power In your grace, I made peace You've got will, I've got power In your grace, I made peace You've got will, I've got power In your grace, I made peace You've got will, I've got power Some days, I don't have the energy Holding back the pain of my ancestry Trying to break the patterns of our history Changing the direction of my family tree I worked so hard, they're so proud of me (Ha) I don't have no time to be visiting I'm running through my life, and what'd I get to be?
