[Intro: CASISDEAD]
We're comin' and we're not comin' to play
[Chorus: Lisa-Kaindé & Naomi]
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
[Verse 1: Lisa Kaindé]
Jealous cowards try to control, yeah
They distort what we can say (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Try and stop what we can do, yeah
When they can't do it themselves (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus: Lisa-Kaindé & Naomi]
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
[Verse 2: BERWYN, Lisa-Kaindé & Naomi]
Rise above
Don't worry, you're alive, put your lighters up
They wanna tell us how to think and how to laugh
And how to cry and how to move
Listen, give me a second, let me find a fuck (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Poor George Floyd died on the floor and everyone saw
So now I sip Don P because I can afford it
If they decide tonight that they all wanted to fight
Then I'm the first guy that's standin' in line for the war, war
[Verse 3: Lisa-Kaindé]
Society's arms of control, yeah
They think they're smart, well, think again (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
They laugh at us behind our backs
Find satisfaction in what they lack, yeah (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus: Lisa-Kaindé & Naomi]
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
[Bridge: Lisa-Kaindé]
We are tired of
We are tired of the abuse
We are tired
Try to stop us, it's no use
We are tired
We are tired of the abuse
We are tired
Try to stop us, it's no use
[Chorus: Lisa-Kaindé & Naomi]
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above
Rise above
Rise above
Rise above
We're gonna rise above

What did Ibeyi say about "Rise Above"?
That’s a cover of a group called Black Flag, a punk group. And funnily enough, at the time, we didn’t know Black Flag. And Richard had probably listened to the song before going to the studio and thought, ‘Damn, the lyrics are really good.’ And he brought the lyrics out and gave them to us. We creat...
What have the artists said about the song?
BERWYN is on this track. He listened to it, and he did his verse really fast. For him, listening to this song made him think of George Floyd, and it’s beautiful. I think the thing is, with this song, you can think about everything. It could be for women. It could be for minorities. It’s a song for t...
