Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Hands up Heads high We rise We rise (hey!) [Verse 1] Silver tongues In their velvet chairs Writing rules Like we’re not there Quiet rooms Where they draw the lines But we’re outside Turning up the sky [Pre-Chorus] You can lock your doors We’ve already poured Every fear out on this floor tonight When they push us down We don’t hit the ground We lean on each other and we climb [Chorus] We hold fast Burn bright We don’t fade We don’t hide You can’t steal this light When we stand side by side We hold fast Burn bright Through the smoke Through the lies If they try to kill the spark inside We ignite We ignite [Verse 2] They say “hush” With a practiced smile Dress control Up as “keep it mild” But our names Aren’t theirs to frame Every heartbeat Beating back their blame [Pre-Chorus] You can raise your walls We’re already tall Every “no” just makes us more alive When they twist the truth We remember proof Every scar is spelling out our rights [Chorus] We hold fast Burn bright We don’t fade We don’t hide You can’t steal this light When we stand side by side We hold fast Burn bright Through the smoke Through the lies If they try to kill the spark inside We ignite We ignite (oh yeah) [Bridge] Who keeps watch When the headlines sleep? We do We do Who stands guard When the cost runs deep? We do We do Raise that flame Till the dark backs down Right here Right now Right here Right now [Chorus] We hold fast Burn bright We don’t fade We don’t hide You can’t steal this light When we stand side by side We hold fast Burn bright Through the smoke Through the lies If they try to kill the spark inside We ignite We ignite [Outro] Hands up Heads high We rise We rise (we rise)

dance, High-energy dance-pop with a driving four-on-the-floor kick, shimmering synth arps, and a thick, sidechained bass line; female vocals up front with crowd-chant hooks built for a stadium. Verses stay tight and rhythmic over sparse keys, pre-chorus lifts with rising pads and tom builds, and the chorus explodes with layered harmonies and echoing gang vocals. Bridge strips back to claps and vocal stacks before a final drop that feels huge and defiant., pop
