From the recording Together We Rise
Together We Rise is an electrifying pop-soul gospel anthem of resilience, courage, and unity in the face of adversity. Driven by Patricia’s powerful, soulful lead vocal, soaring gospel choir harmonies, and the rich sweep of Hammond B3, piano, strings, and driving rhythm, the song is an empowering rallying cry of hope — reminding us that even in the darkest moments, together we rise.
Lyrics
TOGETHER WE RISE
Mmmmm Mmmmm
We’re in a battle for our lives
Between the shadows and the light, shadows and the light
We won’t go quiet in the night
We won’t sit down, we won’t be silenced, silenced
Cuz no matter how hard we may fall
Together we rise
Rise Up
They can knock us to the ground
We won’t stay down
Together we rise
Rise up
We’re the seeds of change
Pushing through the pain
We’re gonna rise
Our battered hearts are wide awake
Out of the dark, so much at stake, we won’t wait
Our hands may tremble, our voices shake
Standing together we’ll never break, we won’t break
Cuz no matter how hard we may fall
Together we rise
Rise Up
They can knock us to the ground
We won’t stay down
Together we rise, ooh
Rise up
We’re the seeds of change
Pushing through the pain
We’re gonna rise
We won’t bow our heads
No we won’t be tamed
The time has come to
Tear off our chains
Can’t divide and conquer us
No we won’t surrender, no
Only growin’ stronger
Every time we fall
Together we rise
Rise up
We’re speaking truth to power
We’re only growing louder
We’re gonna rise
Rise up
Hear our battle cry
We won’t be denied
Together we rise
Rise up
Knock us to the ground
We won’t stay down
Gonna rise
Ooh rise up
We’re the seeds of change
Pushing through the pain
We’re gonna rise
Rise
Rise
Rise
