Lyrics
Description
(Intro)
Percussion pulse, clave + congas, soft skank guitar on the offbeat.
Spoken: "From the yard to the market, we walk—together."
(Verse 1)
From the yard to the market, chalk on the sidewalk, names on the wall,
Mama sells bread by sunrise, fighting bills that never fall.
March down from Kingston corner, through the city, past the lights,
From Lagos to La Habana, we carry lanterns through the nights.
Ballot in hand, a child with a paint-streaked face,
We line the streets with hopes and paper, every small and mighty place.
(Pre-Chorus)
Lift your voice — no chain can bind us, hear the bass, feel the spine,
Skank and heartbeat, steady now, a rising line.
(Chorus) [HOOK — call & response]
Lead: Rise together — (Rise together!)
Lead: Rise together — (We rise!)
Lead: Rise together — (Rise together!)
Tag (group): Now stand, now move — we claim the sky.
(Arrangement note)
Saxophone break starts immediately after the chorus vocal ends and sustains for a minimum of 3.0 seconds (see timestamps below).
(Saxophone break 1 — instrumental)
Saxophone solo (sustained, warm, lyrical) — 1:14.000–1:17.000; 3.0s minimum.
(Verse 2)
Hear the dembow heartbeat in the alley, drums from motherland collide,
Djembe under neon, reggaeton pulse takes us in stride.
Spanish whisper at the corner: "¡Levántate!" — lift your hand up high,
No mek dem divide we, mi brethren, watch the old walls cry.
We trade small stories by the fountain, a teacher counting change,
A lawyer pockets hope like pennies, a line outside the courthouse range.
(Pre-Chorus)
Lift your voice — no chain can bind us, let the riddim free the mind,
Percussion speaking, layered chants, the future we will find.
(Chorus) [HOOK — call & response]
Lead: Rise together — (Rise together!)
Lead: Rise together — (We rise!)
Lead: Rise together — (Rise together!)
Tag (group): March from yard to market, lift the dawn with our cry.
(Saxophone break 2 — instrumental)
Saxophone solo (melodic, bending upward on the last note) — 2:19.000–2:22.500; 3.5s.
(Bridge)
I remember folding my courage into a coat that barely closed,
My neighbor teaching me to count the ballots, how the truth unfolds.
We stepped through tear gas once, turned our fear into a drum,
A woman in the front line said, "Sing louder — they’ll come undone."
Now the streetlight keeps our promises, every footfall writes the page,
We mend the torn pages with our hands and step toward the rage.
(Chorus) [HOOK — Elevated — variation for resolution]
Lead: Rise together — (Rise together!)
Lead: Rise together — (We rise!)
Lead: Rise together, rise forever — (We rise, we won’t hide!)
Tag (group): From dusk to dawn, from vote to voice — we set this right.
(Saxophone break 3 — final instrumental)
Saxophone solo (soaring, slightly improv, then a warm held note) — 3:10.500–3:15.000; 4.5s.
(Outro)
Keep the skank and the bass, the congas and the chant,
Pass the lantern, hold the line, teach the child to plant.
From reggae riddim to the dembow swing, afrobeat drum that,
