[Silence]
\n[Instrumental Intro: funky psychedelic guitar, bouncing bass, handclaps, bright synth]<\/p>\n
[Intro]
\n[Low Synth Drone, Spoken Vocal, Distant and Fragmented]
\nBeam me down
\n(Down, down, down)<\/p>\n
“Is there any intelligent life…”
\n… around
\n(Can any be found…)
\nSpinnin’
\n(Round n’ round n’ round)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nWake up
\n(Shake up)
\nGet outta bed
\n(Get that beat inside your head)<\/p>\n
Sunrise
\n(Open eyes)
\nAnother day
\n(Another chance to find a way)<\/p>\n
No matter where
\n(You came from)
\nNo matter who
\n(You are)<\/p>\n
We’re breathing
\n(Underneath the same star)<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nRaisin’ the roof
\n(Raisin’ the vibe)
\nProof!
\n(We’re one tribe)<\/p>\n
The human race
\n(All in one place)
\nRaise love above
\n(Love, love, love)<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nRaise your hand
\n(If you understand)
\nRaise your voice
\n(We all have a choice)<\/p>\n
Raise the roof
\n(Raise the floor)
\nRaise some hell
\n(Then raise some more)<\/p>\n
Raise your spirits
\n(Raise your eyes)
\nRaise your hopes
\n(And realize)<\/p>\n
We don’t have
\n(To tear apart)
\nTo make room
\n(Inside the heart)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nRaise it up
\n(Up, up, up!)
\nRaise it high
\n(High, high, high!)<\/p>\n
Raise a little
\n(Harmony)
\nRaise a little
\n(Humanity)<\/p>\n
Raise the roof
\n(Raise the vibe)
\nRaise the proof
\n(We’re one tribe)<\/p>\n
[Verse 3]
\nSome are rich
\n(Some are poor)
\nSome have plenty
\n(Some need more)<\/p>\n
Some have power
\n(Some have none)
\nAll our hours
\n(Under one sun)<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nRaisin’ the roof
\n(Raisin’ the vibe)
\nProof!
\n(We’re one tribe)<\/p>\n
The human race
\n(All in one place)
\nRaise love above
\n(Love, love, love)<\/p>\n
[Verse 4]
\nRaise compassion
\n(Raise it up)
\nRaise forgiveness
\n(Fill the cup)<\/p>\n
Raise awareness
\n(Raise your sight)
\nRaise a candle
\n(Be the light)<\/p>\n
Raise the question
\n(Raise the bar)
\nHow much better
\n(Could we be “our”?)<\/p>\n
Raise the future
\n(Raise today)
\nRaise each other
\n(On the way)<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\nThe folklore
\n(of “us and them”)
\nIs no more
\n(I think… therefore I am!)<\/p>\n
[Break]
\nRaisin’!
\n(Praisin’!)<\/p>\n
Raise it up!
\n(Up!)<\/p>\n
Raise love!
\n(Love!)
\n… above…
\nGive flight…
\n… to the white winged dove
\nThe light of love<\/p>\n
[Final Refrain]
\nRaisin’ the roof
\n(Raisin’ the vibe)
\nProof!
\n(We’re one tribe)<\/p>\n
The human race
\n(All in one place)
\nRaise love above
\n(Love, love, love)<\/p>\n
Raisin’ the roof
\n(Raisin’ the vibe)
\nHigher!
\n(We’re still alive)<\/p>\n
The human race
\n(All in one place)
\nRaise love above
\n(Love, love, love)<\/p>\n
Raise love…
\n(Above!)<\/p>\n
Love, love, love<\/p>\n
[Instrumental Outro: funky guitar, handclaps, bass groove, crowd-style \u201cone tribe!\u201d chants fading out]<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\nCan you see reality
\n(It’s coming into view)
\nA world moving rapidly
\n(What are we gonna do?)<\/p>\n
Raise love…
\n(Above!)<\/p>\n
Love, love, love<\/p>\n
[Silence]<\/p>\n
