Akon - Rise Up lyrics

[Intro: Movado] + (Rick Ross) + {DJ Khaled} (HUH!) ANYWAAAY! {We The Best Music} GANGSTAAA... FOR LIFE! (WHOOOO) HEY! [Hook: Akon] Can you hear them now? In the streets they riot, they riot But we won't stand down - we rise up, we rise up Ain't no hiding now, when the world's on fire, on fire We gon' stand our ground - we rise up, we rise up Hear them, coming, in the dark night But we won't, go, from where we are, no Can you hear them now? In the streets they riot, they riot But we won't stand down - we rise up, we rise up [Mavado] Hope and pray for a better day, and a better day will come Oh so many people dying in the rising of the sun Oh, and when they think it's over, it's only just begun Yes, and we should keep on fighting; they could never shoot us down I'm so early rising up now, and we only fight to win Got an evil man who host us; God forgive me for my sins In time, we shall seek, we shall find There's a mountain to climb, we shall leave no one behind [Hook] [Rick Ross] + (Movado) WHOOO~! I know they wanna see me fall (ANYWAAAAY~!), I know they wanna see me fail That's why I go so hard (GANGSTAAA~!), only the real will prevail I will look into the sky, won't let no man give me Hell (Gully God~!) As I reach for my sword, drop the gold in a pail - WHOOO! I love riding with the roof gone (HEY~!), got the money with my j**els on (HEY~!) Might f** her with my shoes on (HEY~!) dope boy, need two phones [Hook] [Mavado] This one's for the people, sing this for all the have-nots Life is like a journey, life is all we've got Oh, but only if we rise up, and fight together, we could never stop If we back down for a minute, it will never stop And they try so hard to fight us... and we try so hard to win So fight the desert like a cactus... fighting for the Guinn' [Hook] [Outro: Akon] We rise up, we rise up {*4X*}
