Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They took my name off the door
Said, "Sit down, girl, learn some more"
Old hands smiling, clean and cold
Counting out my life in rolls of gold
They folded my files like a little white lie
Took my shoes, took my truth, took my sky
But I felt that drum in my chest still beat
Like a deer on the run with a fire beneath
[Pre-Chorus]
I was buried in their rules
Under chalk dust and their jewels
But my blood remembers roads
Where the river speaks, where the cedar grows
[Chorus]
I rise, I rise
Through the thin disguise
I was never made to break
I rise, I rise
Hear it in my eyes
You can't keep what I reclaim
I rise, I rise
I was built to fight
From the ash, from the ache
I rise, I rise
Take your hands away
I am mine to take
[Verse 2]
They smiled like saints in a paper hall
While they nailed my voice up to the wall
Called it order, called it grace
While they stole the light from my face
But I know the bend in the mountain road
I know the weight of a carried load
I know the song my mother gave
Soft as rain, sharp as brave
[Pre-Chorus]
I was buried in their rules
Under chalk dust and their jewels
But my blood remembers roads
Where the river speaks, where the cedar grows
[Chorus]
I rise, I rise
Through the thin disguise
I was never made to break
I rise, I rise
Hear it in my eyes
You can't keep what I reclaim
I rise, I rise
I was built to fight
From the ash, from the ache
I rise, I rise
Take your hands away
I am mine to take
[Bridge]
Let the old doors shake
Let the false saints fade
I am more than their hold
More than what they sold
There’s a name in my bones
There’s a fire in my throat
And it calls me home
And it calls me home
[Final Chorus]
I rise, I rise
Through the thin disguise
I was never made to break
I rise, I rise
Hear it in my eyes
You can't keep what I reclaim
I rise, I rise
I was built to fight
From the ash, from the ache
I rise, I rise
Take your hands away
I am mine to take
[Outro]
I am mine
I am mine
I am mine to take
