Lyrics

I'm done asking for your permission
I'm tired of hearing what I can and can't do
I'm done keeping things all to myself, I'm ready to speak up

It starts with me and it starts now
No longer a lone voice standing in the crowd

Time to rise up and be counted
Time to stand up, stand up and be heard
I'm gonna make you see me
I'm gonna make you hear me
It's time to rise

No more hiding in the shadows
It's time to level the playing field
I'm a warrior, I've got nerves of steel
I'm done walking through your minefields

It starts with me and it starts now
Ohhh no longer a lone voice standing in the crowd

Time to rise up and be counted
Time to stand up, stand up and be heard
I'm gonna make you see me
I'm gonna make you hear me
It's time to rise

Everybody come together, time to stand as one
Hand in hand together we stand, oh we've only just begun

It starts with us and it starts now

Ohhhhh time to rise up and be counted
Time to stand up, stand up and be heard
We're gonna make you see us
We're gonna make you hear us
It's time to rise

Together, we rise, rise up and be counted
Together, we stand, stand up and be heard
It's time to rise
