I Rise
Like the phoenix, I rise
Like the sun, I rise
Like an athlete, I rise
Like our people, I rise
Like an oak, I rise
Like Christ, I rise
I rise because I do not accept defeat
I rise because I do not let anyone say I can't
I rise because the situation calls me step up
I rise because I am courageous
I rise because I am strong
I rise because I only fear God
I rise because no one else will
