The Rising Songtext
von Sho Baraka

Oh what a beauty that life was found (Life was found X2)
Only in those whom which grace abounds (Grace abounds X2)
Darkness can no longer hold me down (hold me down X2)
It′s a new day now the sun/Son is out (sun/Son is out X2)

The sun is out
The sun is...
The sun is out Yeah(Repeat X3)

I gotta whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (Shine)
A whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (shine)
A whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (shine)
Ima let it shine (shine)Repeat X2 yeah

I told you boys that the sun/Son is out X3
The Sun is out X2


Yeah ok
We do the Father's business you can go to work too
These are family matters some are just urkel??
We celebrate the Son yeah He brings life now
A whole lotta people asking us to calm down
You′d get excited if you understood forgiveness
And you shoulda seen the difference
Ever since the light hit us
I'm no English teacher but I can spell repentance
And eternity in hell is a run-on sentence

Slow down Yeah
How do we escape death?
Only by getting that judge to erase that
You heard on easter homie death couldn't hold Him
Carried the weight of the world on His shoulders
Better straighten up death′s getting closer
Either you′re crooked or the world's leaning over
Living in the Son is a lifestyle
Some got the light but what you gon do now?

I gotta whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (Shine)
A whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (shine)
A whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (shine)
Ima let it shine (shine)Repeat X2 yeah

I told you boys that the sun/Son is out X3
The Sun is out X2


Yeah one two ok X2
Yeah
Ey when you say the Sun/Son is out what you really mean?
Ey let me make it plain let me spill the beans (spill ′em)
I mean God sent His Son just to intervene (why?)
Cos we was walking dead like that thriller scene
You want things to better but it's still a dream
The work already started, He fulfilling things
Hey without Him I′d be still a fiend but instead
I'm tryna walk in the light like Mike in Billy Jean

Slow down
I was all about me what a tricky thing
I was just tryna get ahead like guillotine
But now I′m following the Head He's the realest thing
He lived and rose bro but He died in between
So if you want some evidence that He was really seen
Look at the lives of the guys that have really seen
Cos He opened up our eyes bro we been redeemed
Praise God the Sun/Son is out I can feel the beams

I gotta whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (Shine)
A whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (shine)
A whole lotta light homie ima let it shine (shine)
Ima let it shine (shine)Repeat X2 yeah

I told you boys that the sun/Son is out X3
The Sun is out X2

Yeah
Look at folks in other countries believe
He walked on water just to reach overseas
Yeah He's fully God fully man
They thought the Sun/Son was down
But He would rise once again let′s go

I told you boys that the sun/Son is out X3
The Sun is out X2

The good shepherd a barn was His birthplace
Who else you know that stopped time with the birthday
Many people live their lives to get dough
Watch the bread of life rise without the yeast though
Joy to the world, gift to all the people
Best Chris-rap you hear without the beat yo
The way we view the Son is so feeble
That′s why we live backwards young we so evil

I told you boys that the sun/Son is out X3
The Sun is out X2
The sun is out
The sun is...
The sun is out Yeah(Repeat X3)
