"Rise" is a single released by post-punk group Public Image Ltd in 1986. It was the first single from Album, their fifth studio album. The song was written by John Lydon and Bill Laswell about apartheid in South Africa, specifically about Nelson Mandela as Lydon stated in a 2013 Glastonbury interview.
