Rise With the Drum

Intro

Floor still warm from a thousand feet

Dust lifts light before the sun

Verse

Bare soles reading the concrete's pulse

Every stamp a name I know

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from the floor to the ribs

Feel the crowd become one drum

Chorus

Rise with the drum

Rise with the drum

Feet remember, hands go up

Rise with the drum

Verse

Sweat and smoke and the horn line calling

Shoulders answer before I think

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from the floor to the ribs

Feel the crowd become one drum

Chorus

Rise with the drum

Rise with the drum

Feet remember, hands go up

Rise with the drum

Bridge

Not one voice, it's a hundred

Not my rhythm, it's the ground

Ancestors dancing under streetlight

Turning the dark around

Outro

Rise with the drum

Sun's up now, still we rise

Rise with the drum
