Lyrics to Rise Intently
We ain't playing no more (Nope)
Can't take my money no more
Made my brother choke
This here ain't no joke
Can't look me in my eyes
They ain't saving lives
Black woman, black woman angry
Black man, black man angry
Black woman, black woman angry
Black man, black man angry
Hope this pain don't change me
In your eyes you hate me
Use your laws to break me
Black don't crack, you crazy
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
Can't take my money no more
Made my brother choke
This here ain't no joke
Can't look me in my eyes
They ain't saving lives
Black woman, black woman angry
Black man, black man angry
Black woman, black woman angry
Black man, black man angry
Hope this pain don't change me
In your eyes you hate me
Use your laws to break me
Black don't crack, you crazy
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
We will rise intently
