| You are the sun, I am the flame
 | 
| You are the blood, I am the same
 | 
| We are the love that rises again
 | 
| They are the snake that bites on your veins
 | 
| (We are not chained to the wheel)
 | 
| You are the tear, I have no fear
 | 
| You are so strange, I feel the same
 | 
| Sorcerous mind, we ride again
 | 
| (We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel)
 | 
| It’s the way that you feel
 | 
| It’s the truth in your eye
 | 
| You got wings upon your back and you can fly
 | 
| It’s the way that you feel
 | 
| It’s the truth in your eye
 | 
| 'Cause you’re up against the world and still you rise
 | 
| And still you rise
 | 
| You are alive and high in my dreams
 | 
| You are the stars that mystify me
 | 
| And you are the wolf that frightens the thief
 | 
| And you are the voice that they disbelieve
 | 
| (We are not chained to the wheel)
 | 
| And you are the spark that sets us all free
 | 
| (We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel)
 | 
| It’s the way that you feel
 | 
| It’s the truth in your eye
 | 
| You got wings upon your back and you can fly
 | 
| It’s the way that you feel
 | 
| It’s the truth in your eye
 | 
| 'Cause you’re up against the world and still you rise
 | 
| And still you rise
 | 
| Whoa, baby
 | 
| It’s the way that you feel
 | 
| It’s the truth in your eye
 | 
| You got wings upon your back and you can fly
 | 
| It’s the way that you feel
 | 
| It’s the truth in your eye
 | 
| 'Cause you’re up against the world and still you rise
 | 
| And still you rise
 | 
| Still you rise
 | 
| Still you rise |
