Rise Up 歌詞

Why not say it like it is Like you know you should Before they break your little heart Ooh, break it good Feelings on the inside Never let you down So why not say it like it is Even if it don't make your mama proud Why change your mind when you make it up Second chances don't come easy, easy for some Baby I don't know the lock from the key But I know one of them is you And the other one's me So if it's happiness you want That's what you'll get You gotta rise up, little sister Turn on the light Wise up to the stories you've been told 'Cause love don't come in black or white No no no no. My mama tells me I won't get through the pearly gates 'Cause I ain't sorry for my sins And all my mistakes Mama I don't know if I'm goin' up or down, But I know heaven's gonna be one lonely town But if it's happiness you want, That's what you'll get You gotta rise up, little sister Turn on the light Wise up to the stories you've been told 'Cause love don't come in black or white Whoa no no no, whooo no. Oh oh oh oh oh oh (etc.) Rise up, little sister Turn on the light Wise up to the stories you've been told Whoaaa yeah Rise up, little sister Turn on the light Wise up to the stories you've been told 'Cause love don't come in black or white No no, it don't come in black or white Whooa ooooh Rise up, open your eyes Love don't come in black or white Whoa uh uh, no Wise up to the stories you've been told You know, love don't come in black or white Little sister, you gotta rise up
