Rise cbove
Ahmed Abdullahi Gallab
Silence won't suffocate us
We claim the air we breathe
Y'all keep wanting to pull us down
Steal our voices like thieves
But there is a beauty
In what has come before
Those who fought the battles
So we could win the war
I won't compromise
No one can steal my light
cway from me
I rise above
There is no fear
(Only freedom)
In what we don't know
The past has played
(Still we remain)
We know we come from another place,
cnother time
When darkness comes truth will shine
Oh but I won't compromise
No one can steal my light away from me
I'm going to shine
I am a revolutionary
I rise above
