Still I Rise by Maya Angelou
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.
Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.
Just like moon and like suns
With certainty of tides,
Just like hope springing highs,
I'll rise.
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops,
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Does my haughtiness offend you?
Dont you take it awful hard
Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines
Diggin' in my own backyard.
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
Does my sexiness upset you?
That I dance like I've got diamonds
Out of huts of history shame,
I rise
Up from a past thats rooted in pain
Im a black ocean, leaping and wide
I rise
Welling and swelling I bear in tide
I rise
Leaving behind night of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak thats wondruosly clear
I rise
Bringing the gift that my ancestors gave,
Im the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise
Uwaaooow baguss bangett kan gengs so deep..😢, itu dulu yaa. Kalo ada yang mau ditanyain bisa langsung tulis di komentar yaa.. Thanks for visiting!
