Lyrics
Together we rise like fire and smoke Together we conspire so we never lose hope Together reach higher than you ever could know Meet destiny Together we Together we rise like fire and smoke Together we conspire so we never lose hope Together reach higher than you ever could know Together we Together we Together we Together we Rise together, we rise together, we rise together, we raise up Whatever the days have brought In every phase we're settin' the stage up With memories of better ways of breaking bread with neighbors And when I share with you it's an honor, not a favor Everybody is a stranger in a strange land 'Til we make plans to be otherwise Raise hands up to the skies Like water vapors that arise From the cold street like butterflies Or breakdancers doing boomerangs Coming back home to one great family of human beings Look into each other's eyes See a whole world of a size only the most high could know Dreams of a dozen lifetimes Flood bloodlines flowing right below The patchwork tapestry that we call skin Recall relatives like lightning bolts Thunder rolls down an ocean from an icicle So whenever my eyes are closed I'm praying we can keep love alive Clutch tight to the rainbows To the sunsets and the northern lights To the flesh tones spanning every shade Of luscious bright dust that provides us sustenance Please don't ever let me be color blind Sing a lullaby Together we Together we Together we rise like fire and smoke Together we conspire so we never lose hope Together reach higher than you ever could know Meet destiny Together we Together we It's the limit of culture, repulsive Circling vultures put profits over our hearts And the opposite of what we should want But we've got is a pit in the middle of democracy Hostilely an avocado seed We could pot and start watering Stop tossing rocks at the other team There's a profit in othering Punishing gossip among other things Impossible policy, policing all of the smothered dreams An abundance of tongue and cheek Leaves some of us wondering How we love for the government Not what suffers in front of me Rigor mortis and some chorus chords Rising tide, lower shores Democratize how we all rise like neither side is keeping score With rock-solid accomplishments Our byproduct is monuments And those who climb as conquerors We rise up as the opposition Together we rise like fire and smoke Together we conspire so we never lose hope Together reach higher than you ever could know Meet destiny Together we Together we rise Together we Together we Together we Together we
