Rise (Extended Version) Cory Henry & The Funk Apostles

[Verse 1]
We all need to (Look at history)
What we'll find is (It's repeating, uh-huh)
It won't change 'til (We all come together)
Tell the truth now (Look, it's in the mirror)

[Refrain]
It looks as though all hope is lost (In the world today)
We're all trying to find that light (To make it a better place)
We've got to show them what it means to live in (Peace and harmony)
Where I'm a part of you, my brother, and you are a part of me
You're a part of me

[Chorus]
Together, said that we gon' (Rise to the top)
All my people singin', we gon' (Risе to the top)
Everybody, we gon' (Risе to the top)
Oh-oh, we gon' rise (Oh, we gon' rise) I said to the top
Ayy, yeah, oh, yes, man

[Verse 2]
(I said it feels) Feels like somehow (I lived this life before)
(Check through the books) Check the books and
(My ancestors went through way more)
We might have to (Fight technology)
Or we will end up (Back in slavery)
