You told me to take my questions To the mirror I've lost You told me to find my answers At the line I crossed My source of strength Is a dream I'd never compromise Now the emptiness subsides, subsides Unforgiven promises All the unfound wishes Countless times you've held me down Kept me down 'Cause I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will rise 'Cause I will, I will rise Never compromise 'Cause I will, I will rise Oh, unforgiven promises And all the unfound wishes, wishes 'Cause I will, I will, I will rise I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will rise 'Cause I will, I will rise You can see it in my eyes, in my eyes, in my eyes 'Cause I will, I will rise, rise I will, I will, I will, I will rise
