Arising from the clay
I’m here to have a say
What will I relay
I’m going to pray
For the sound was sent
As my image was cast
Like a water fount
I will shoot up
Doing what I’ve never done
Or only done obscure
Unaccompanied ee
Knowing that I’ve shone
For the clay
Was my mainstay
Before His hands
Shaped me
I can never go back
To who I was before He
Wanting to see the sky
Above it, I’ll elevate
The sky releases the sound
Rise
Unafraid
Rise
Speaking Aloud
Rise
From within
The power of the word
Causes this clay to rattle
As my feet begin to scramble
The ground beneath me
Seems to push against me
Arise Girl
Heaven’s waiting
Arise Lady
Your time is swaying
Arise Woman
You’re oblation
Arise Daughter
You’re My Vision
Arise…
