[singer A] Rise… Tell dem… The Queen arrive… Heavy bass… Heavy heart… Heavy soul… Storm brewin’ inna di sky, smoke wrap ’round mi crown. Mi footstep shake di ground, night bend when mi come. Whole place get dark when mi step through di gate. Lioness energy — raw, untamed, full a fate. Rise… Di Queen arrive… An’ every spirit haffi move out di way. [transition] [singer B] Whole city know when mi walk through the gate, Dem talk loud but they’re always too late. Steel in mi spine, got fire in mi veins, Built from sunshine, thunder and rain. Never needed crowns made of gold, Mine was forged where the brave stand bold. Every scar is a story told, Every heartbeat louder than old. Bassline rumble… Ground start shake… Nobody here gonna make me break. [melodic transition] [singer A] Lioness rise, mi a blaze through di night, Heavy heart beatin’, heavy soul ignite. Mi roar shake city, mi claim mi right, Mi nah ease up — mi born fi di fight. Rise, rise — mi spirit cyan’t hide. Rise, rise — mi tek back mi pride. Lioness rise — whole world cyan’t divide. Mi rise, mi rise, mi rise. [transition] [singer B] You can stare… You can try… Still mi spirit touch the sky. You can push… You can shout… You’ll never put this fire out. Carry me… Like the ocean carries the moon… Carry me… Under the silver afternoon… I’m still rising… Higher… Higher… Like flames dancing in the midnight air… You can’t stop me… No… You’ll find me everywhere… [instrumental] [singer A] Mi rise from ashes, mi rise from pain, Mi rise from storm, mi rise from rain. Every loss turn power inna mi vein — Lioness rise, mi reign, mi reign. Lioness rise, mi a blaze through di night, Heavy heart beatin’, heavy soul ignite. Mi roar shake city, mi claim mi right, Mi nah ease up — mi born fi di fight. Rise… Di Queen arrive… An’ di whole world feel di stride. [transition] [singer B] Now watch me rise! Carry me… Like the sunrise over the sea… Carry me… To the woman I’m born to be… No chains hold me… No fear owns me… My heart keeps beating louder than before… I’m a daughter of rhythm… A queen forevermore… [melodic interlude] [singer A] Rise… Di Queen arrive… An’ every spirit haffi move out di way.
