Rewrite the Code

We rise again Fist to the sky No more chains Feel the fire inside We build our dream to box We call home Eyes wide open It's with hope in the hearts Painting futures bright Elders sharing wisdom On the street light No saviors coming We save ourselves Plates of strength On these shelves Lay tight Aim to power We step forward Hour by hour We own these streets We're at the code Empower the circle Lighten them up Rise up Community Feel the beating soul Together we stand Making broken things whole Empower the people Let the truth unfold We are the change Bold and uncontrolled Rise up Rise up No more waiting around In our unity Strength is found Yeah Yeah Sisters and brothers Shedding more fears Exit our path Through the doubts And the tears Knowledge is the weapon We sharpen our minds Leaving the shadows Leaving vines Behind gather the youth Teach them to lead Cousin the courage From the words that we need From the struggle we bloom Roots running deep Collect the five promises We keep no division Divides as we heal As one dawn of our era The battle is won Echo a call From the rooftops High community Strong touching sky Pause for a breath Feel the pulse in the air While we run We build today Forever we'll share No turning back The momentum grows Empowerment flows Where the real spirit shows Rise up Community Feel the beat in your soul Together we stand Making broken things whole Empower the people Let the truth unfold We are the change Bold and uncontrolled Rise up Rise up No more waiting around In our unity Strength is found We rise again In our unity We rise again We rise again Fist to the sky Power forever
