Lyrics

(When I am dead, wrap the mantle of the red, the black and the green around me, for in a new life I shall rise up) Everywhere the voice of the generation Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who hears what I'm saying Can't tell people shit Cause they take it personally Open them ears You better listen to me Cause we are killing them trees And we're polluting these seas Taking these bitches like they ain't got no feelings But that is somebody's daughter And if you're somebody's father Then you can judge what she offers Cause she just wants you to want it now Imma tell the truth till I die And Imma keep my head to the sky You never hear the truth in a lie Got a lot of reasons but no reasons why We don't change We play games We want fame We bought chains We join gangs We love them We ain't change We're all the same (life I shall rise up) Children of the sun (life I shall rise up) Rise (life I shall rise up) Please don't shed a tear (life I shall rise up) Out those eyes (life I shall rise up) Don't you have no fear Cause I am with you Please don't ever fear Cause I am with you (to lead the millions to the heights of triumph, that you well know) You can't see a real woman for her beauty We love shallow bitches with blessing smiles and fake booties We don't really know what true love is Cause daddy left the home when we was kids Not to have someone to look up to Now we in the streets Acting cool, getting tattoos Momma never really had control Just a troubled woman with a perfect soul So Imma tell the truth till I die And Imma keep my head to the sky You never hear the truth in a lie Got a lot of reasons but no reasons why We don't change We play games We want fame We bought chains We join gangs We love them We ain't change We're all the same (life I shall rise up) Children of the sun (life I shall rise up) Rise (life I shall rise up) Please don't shed a tear (life I shall rise up) Out those eyes (life I shall rise up) Don't you have no fear Cause I am with you Please don't ever know fear Cause I am with you I ain't afraid of nothing (We've prayed to God for vision and for leadership) Except for what I could become (A vision that will not limit our possibilities to America) Sometimes we are born to something (Because the time has come for the Black man to forget his hero worship of other races [cheer]) Sometimes we just die with none Children of the sun (of the sun) Rise Please don't shed a tear (shed a tear) Out those eyes Don't you have no fear Cause I am with you Please don't ever know fear Cause I am with you Cause I am with you Cause I am
