Rise slow
Rise slow
Mm-mm, pa-pa-pa-pa-do
Mm-mm-mm, mm, rise slow
Mm, mm, mm, mm, no, no

No one saw the nights I held my ground
No one heard me when I made no sound
I didn’t need the light to find my way
I just kept moving through the dark each day

Not fast, not loud, not for the crowd
Just real, just deep, just mine to keep, oh

(I rise slow) but I rise sure
Every scar I carry made me more
(I rise slow) but I rise strong
Took the time it took, now I belong
Rise slow (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Rise slow (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, ah)

They wanted fire, I gave them roots
They wanted shortcuts, I gave them truth
I fell morе times than I care to say
But evеry fall just showed me where to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
Not fast, not loud, not for the crowd
Just real, just deep, just mine to keep

(I rise slow) but I rise sure
Every scar I carry made me more
(I rise slow) but I rise strong
Took the time it took, now I belong
Rise slow (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Rise slow (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

The ones who rise fast
Fall the same way
The ones who rise slow
Are built to stay

(I rise slow) but I rise sure
Every scar I carry made me more
(I rise slow) but I rise strong
Took the time it took (Took, took, took, took)

I belong (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
I belong (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
I belong (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
I belong (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Rise slow (Still rising)
Rise slow (Still here)
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
