“They’re whispering ‘You’re out of time,’ but still I rise.” — CMV/AMV Saturday (03/31/18)

I hadn't heard the song Rise by Katy Perry until I stumbled upon this video; I'm not a huge modern pop fan, so this isn't such a surprise, but I didn't even realize that Katy Perry was singing until over half way through the video. I then suspected enough to confirm the knowledge. Moving on, …
