Hi All!
I'm super excited to release this music video for this song of mine! This single will be released to all the places one listens to music on Sep 9. Pre-save it here: orcd.co/presavewewillrise
This song was inspired by the great writer and activist Maya Angelou and her poem, "And I Still I Rise." This song is dedicated to all the courageous women who stand up for their rights and those of others. I hope this song wakes up the female warrior inside and gives the inspiration to continue to fight for our rights.
My new album comes out on Nov 18! Pre-Save it here: orcd.co/presaveallthatineed

Lyrics:
If you try to cut me down, know that my roots run strong
If you want to break my spirit Know that I'm standing tall
If you dig into my heart Burrow through my scars
Where it begins to burn That's when the fire starts
Dancing with your dynamite
Set fire to the sky
Dancing with your dynamite
And We Will Rise
We Will Rise
With Every Step
With Every Cry
And We Will Rise
We Will rise
Lift every voice
Sing through the night
We Will Rise
You can try to stop the waves, but you’ll never beat the storm
We’re coming like a hurricane, we know what we’re fighting for
You’re gonna see it now, watch as the lightning strikes
You came to play Make no mistake
Cause now it’s do or die
Dancing with your dynamite Set fire to the sky
Dancing with your dynamite
And We Will Rise
We Will Rise
With Every Step
With Every Cry
And We Will Rise
We Will Rise
Lift Every Voice
Sing Through The Night
We Will Rise
Ooh, We Will Rise
Ooh, We Will Rise
