Rise Up
Beyonce Lyrics

I’m the matriarch of your land
I am the leader of your community, responsible for guiding and protecting you

When you need to take my hand
When you need guidance or support, I am here for you

Come into my arms, I’ll keep you safe from harm
I will protect you and keep you safe from danger

I’ll keep your precious heart
I will take care of your emotional well-being, ensuring that you are happy and fulfilled

Some people try to drag you down
There will always be people who want to bring you down or make you feel small

Take it from me, stand and be proud
But don't let their negativity affect you, instead, stand tall and be proud of who you are

You’re a warrior
You are strong and resilient, capable of overcoming any obstacle

You’re my warrior
As your leader and protector, I am proud of your strength and perseverance

Be who you are
Embrace your authentic self, without trying to be someone else

Know that life holds more than what you see
There is more to life than what you can physically see or experience

Rise up little man rise up little man
Stand up and fight for yourself, even if you feel small or powerless

Fight for you and me
We are in this together, and we must fight for each other's well-being and happiness

Look into my eyes and believe
Trust in me and believe that we can overcome any challenge together

Little woman we will fight, we will rise
As a strong and capable woman, I will fight alongside you and we will rise above any obstacle

I see you and me
I recognize our common struggles and challenges, and am here to support you

Take my hand and we
Let us work together, hand in hand, to overcome any obstacle

We will stand we will fight, we will fight
We will stand up for what we believe in, and fight for a better future

They’ll burn you at the stake if you
There may be people who will try to punish you for being different or going against the norm

Don’t act like they want you to
Do not conform to their expectations, instead, be true to yourself

But baby be yourself
Embrace your authentic self, and do not let others change who you are

Do good and help the world
Use your unique talents and strengths to make a positive impact on the world

Rise up, rise up little man
Stand up for yourself and what you believe in, even if you are small or outnumbered

Don’t be scared I’m holding your hand
I am here to support and guide you, even in the face of fear or danger

Know that life holds more than
Remember that life is full of possibilities and opportunities that you may not yet see or understand

What we see and what we get
The present circumstances may not be all that life has to offer

Rise up, rise up little woman
As a strong and capable woman, you can rise above any obstacle or challenge

Don’t be afraid to risk it all
Do not let fear hold you back from pursuing your dreams or taking risks

I will
As your leader and protector, I will support and guide you through whatever challenges may come our way
