  • Today's the day when we all rise
    My anchor's gone so watch me come alive
    Together we stand against the burning lies
    And now that I found my wings to fly I'm ready to go

    Rise, we all rise
    We all rise
    Today's the day
    Rise

    Hold up I'm back to boast on these tracks like
    I'm mad at em, might back slap mics
    Never mind mind the fact I never left I'm hype
    Listen up right you ain't gotta ask me twice
    I'm here, I'm here to brag on him like I'm known for
    While folks snore I'ma go for it
    My God ain't no folklore, 'cause he real, he real
    Now to the topic at hand
    I know the designer, he's higher than pilots who fly up in clouds he designed with his hands
    I'm writing to tell you this life is a flash in a pan
    How I'ma retire when we need a cryer to tell us to rise up and stand?
    Check yo plans
    My dude, that grave ain't your home
    Cause you been underground way too long
    Six deep with a date on your stone
    All they say, "That boy gone"
    Come on, don't you wanna go home?
    Don't you wanna be more than a clone?
    Do you know that you're loved and you're known?
    We all ride on the wrong side
    But we beating our chest at the wrong guy
    "We don't need God"
    We may not say it with our mouths, but we do with our whole lives
    That's a bold lie, he's the most high no close by, we all die
    John 5:28,29, the judge is here!
    All rise

    Today's the day when we all rise
    My anchor's gone so watch me come alive
    Together we stand against the burning lies
    And now that I found my wings to fly I'm ready to go

    Rise, we all rise
    We all rise
    Today's the day
