Nina Cried Power

                        Fm
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
                         Eb
It is the groundin' of a foot uncompromisin'
                         Db
It's not forgoin' of the lie
             Ab          C
It's not the openin' of eyes
              Bbm             Fm
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
                                 Fm
It's not the shade, we should be past it
                            Eb
It's the light and it's the obstacle that casts it
                              Db
It's the heat that drives the light
          Ab        C
It's the fire it ignites
              Bbm              Fm
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
                              Fm
It's not the song, it is the singin'
                      Eb
It's the heaven of a human spirit ringin'
                          Db
It is the bringin' of the line
           Ab              C
It is the bearin' of the rhyme
              Bbm              Fm
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'

It's not the war but what's behind it
                    Eb
Oh, the fear of how men is near assignment
                          Db
And everythin' that we're denied
     Ab           C
By keepin' the divide
