Rise up, when all of your hope is gone
'Cause I understand and now is not the time
And you don't wanna be bothered right now
Rise up, rise
(When you think you, when you think you cannot make it, rise up)
Rise up
Not here to preach about the private side, no
I just wanna be here for you if I can
And you're feeling like it just ain't fair
And together we will get through these times
(And we will have a victory)
(When all hope is gone)
(We'll stand tall and believe)
You are my sister and I'm your brother
And side by side we'll face this thing
(In the middle, in the middle of your storm when you)
Rise up, rise
No color, no color
You see struggle, struggle has
Rise up, and when the tears start to fall
(Hey, rise up)
Rise up, rise
Rise up
Rise up, rise
And we will cry together
And we'll fight this together
(And we gotta know tomorrow will come)
In the midst of crisis
Rise up, rise
Stand together, pray together
And you don't think nobody cares
Rise up, when you're weak and you can't be strong
Rise up, when you're weak and you can't be strong
And we'll be strong together
And let you know that Virginia will rise again}
To hold your hand and be by your side
I know you're feeling pain right now
Rise up, when you feel you can't go on
Rise up, rise
And we'll fight this together
Rise
Not gonna lie and say I understand
Walk with you, holding the candle light
Rise up, when your back is up against the wall
Rise, rise up
(Heads up to to the sky)
I know you're going through something
Rise up, and when the tears start to fall
Rise up, and you feel you've given it your all
Rise up
Rise
Rise up, rise
Rise up, and you feel you've given it your all
Rise
Now I know the burdens that you've had
A storm comes out of nowhere
See I just wanna help you make it right
Rise up, rise
(God bless you Virginia)
Rise up, rise
Rise up, rise
Rise up, when you feel you can't go on
Rise up, rise
And we'll be strong together
(Our hearts go out to you and your families)
Rise up, when all of your hope is gone
And you don't wanna talk right now
Stand together, pray together
(Hey we gon' rise)
Rise up, when your back is up against the wall
And we will cry together
Rise up, rise
Rise up
(Hey)
Standing tall, you and me
