Word
You
may
write
me
down
in
history
With
your
bitter,
twisted
lies,
You
may
tread
me
in
the
very
dirt
But
still,
like
dust,
I'll
rise.
Does
my
sassiness
upset
you?
Why
are
you
beset
with
gloom?
'Cause
I
walk
like
I've
got
oil
wells
Pumping
in
my
living
room.
Just
like
moons
and
like
suns,
With
the
certainty
of
tides,
Word
Just
like
hopes
springing
high,
Still
I'll
rise.
Did
you
want
to
see
me
broken?
Bowed
head
and
lowered
eyes?
Shoulders
falling
down
like
teardrops.
Weakened
by
my
soulful
cries.
Does
my
haughtiness
offend
you?
Don't
you
take
it
awful
hard
'Cause
I
laugh
like
I've
got
gold
mines
Diggin'
in
my
own
back
yard.
You
may
shoot
me
with
Word
your
words,
You
may
cut
me
with
your
eyes,
You
may
kill
me
with
your
hatefulness,
But
still,
like
air,
I'll
rise.
Does
my
sexiness
upset
you?
Does
it
come
as
a
surprise
That
I
dance
like
I've
got
diamonds
At
the
meeting
of
my
thighs?
Out
of
the
huts
of
history's
shame
I
rise
Up
from
a
past
that's
Word
rooted
in
pain
I
rise
I'm
a
black
ocean,
leaping
and
wide,
Welling
and
swelling
I
bear
in
the
tide.
Leaving
behind
nights
of
terror
and
fear
I
rise
Into
a
daybreak
that's
wondrously
clear
I
rise
Bringing
the
gifts
that
my
ancestors
gave,
I
am
the
dream
and
the
hope
of
the
slave.
I
rise
I
rise
I
rise.
