Rise Up - Darkbuster

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
