We Rise Together

[Intro – soft female vocal] If you ever felt forgotten… If you ever thought you had no one… Listen closely. You are not alone. [Verse 1] We came from places nobody knows, Carrying scars that nobody shows. We learned to smile through the hardest days, Lost our way, then found our own ways. They tried to tell us who we had to be, But there was always something wild in me. Every tear became a part of my fire, Every fall took me higher and higher. [Pre-Chorus – building] And I know you’ve been fighting too, I know the world has been hard on you. But look around, we’re standing here, Different hearts, but we share the same fear. [Chorus – powerful female vocal] WE RISE TOGETHER! We are stronger than the pain. WE RISE TOGETHER! Through the sunshine, through the rain. You are not alone tonight, There are millions standing by your side. Different stories, one big fight, We rise together, we rise tonight! [Drop – female vocal chops] Rise! Rise! Rise together! We are still here! We are still here! [Verse 2] Black or white, from near or far, You carry your own beautiful scars. Gay, bi, straight, whoever you are, You don't have to hide who you are. Woman by birth, woman by heart, A man who knows she's a woman from the start. No matter the road, no matter the name, You deserve respect, you deserve your place. [Pre-Chorus – stronger] We've been judged, we've been pushed aside, We've had to learn how to survive. But nobody gets to tell us we're not enough, We've been through hell and we're still made of love. [Chorus – huge] WE RISE TOGETHER! We are stronger than the pain. WE RISE TOGETHER! Through the sunshine, through the rain. You are not alone tonight, There are millions standing by your side. Different stories, one big fight, We rise together, we rise tonight! [Build – spoken female vocal] To the woman who's crying in silence… You matter. To the woman who's afraid to be herself… You matter. To the woman who thinks nobody cares… We see you. And if you're still fighting… Keep going. You're not alone. [Final Drop – euphoric techno] WE RISE! WE FIGHT! WE LOVE! WE SURVIVE! WE RISE! WE FIGHT! WE LOVE! WE SURVIVE! All together! All together! All together! [Final Chorus – emotional + powerful] WE RISE TOGETHER! No more hiding from the light. WE RISE TOGETHER! We are choosing life tonight. Whatever you've been through, Whatever they said about you, There is a place here for you, There is a place here for you. Different hearts, different names, Different stories, different flames. But when we stand together strong, Nobody has to fight alone. [Outro – soft female vocal] If you feel like you have nobody… Look around. We are here. You are here. And together… We rise.
