I will rise, 'boldly I say',
You that study my stars and say,
-it will but dim
Let me wake from my dream
Like Joseph, soon I'll rule
don't take me for fool
I'll rise and see my glory even if I've no eyes
Like Barthlomew I will see with surprise
Don't be afraid of selling me to the Ishmeelites
Do it, because its just a lift to my heights
I will rise, even if potiphar's wife comes my way
I know she is a hole on my way
She knows I'm at the corner to my throne
'I'll rise', to you is just a mere tone
My brothers, to me, this is not a sorrow
Because you will bow for me tomorrow
