Ooohhhhhh....
Yeah, yeah

I gotta a story that must be heard,
About a little girl who wished she was a bird.
She was unhappy livin' in a ghetto cage,
But it gave her hope when her sweet grandma would say:

[Baby, you will rise.]
...Rise!
[Limit is the skies.]
...The skies.
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
...Nobody...fill your head with lies.
[Baby, you will rise.]
...Rise
[Never compromise.]
...Compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
...Waitin' for you....other side.

Yeah

She had a burnin' desire to go far,
And she had lively hopes of reaching every star.
One day she'd leave this place,
But never forget her fateful s___e.
And when she found her dreams,

She'd come back and proclaim!

Yeah...

[Baby, you will rise.]
[Limit is the skies.]
...The skies.
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
...Nobody...fill your head with lies.
[Baby, you will rise.]
...Rise
[Never compromise.]
...Compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
...Waitin' for you....other side

you will rise....

[Baby, you will rise.]
...You will rise
[Limit is the skies.]
...Skies
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
...Don't you let no body....lies
[Baby, you will rise.]
...You will rise
[Never compromise.]
...Never compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
..Wilk and honey...waitin' waitin'

[Baby, you will rise.]
You will rise!
[Limit is the skies.]
Limit is the sky!
[Don't let no body fill your head with their lies.]
Don't you let nobody....fill you head with their lies
[Never compromise.]
Never compromise
[Milk and honey is waitin' for you on the other side.]
