Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
it's not the wakin', it's the [Em]ris in'
It is the groundin' of a [D]foot uncompromisin'
It's not forgoin' of the [C]lie
It's not the [G]openin' of [B]eyes
It's not the [Am]wakin', it's the [Em]ris in'

[Verse 2]
It's not the shade, we should be [Em]past it
It's the light and it's
the [D]ob stacle that casts it

It's not the [Am]wakin', it's the [Em]ris in'

[Verse 3]
It's not the song, it is the [Em]singin'
It's the heaven of the [D]hu man spirit ringin'
It is the bringin' of the [C]line
It is the [G]bearin' of the [B]rhyme
It's not the [Am]wakin', it's the [Em]ris in'

It's not the wall but what's be[Em]hind it
Lord, the fear of fellow [D]man,
