At McKinley In The Choir Room

Jesse was standing in front of everyone. "I am very happy you guys want me to be a leader again. But I want to sing to re-entry to New Directions." Jesse said to them. "Sure, little sis." Sebastian said to her and Jesse look at the band who starts playing the song.

Jesse
I won't just survive
Oh, you will see me thrive
Can't write my story
I'm beyond the archetype

Jesse sings the song with her eyes on everyone.

Jesse
I won't just conform
No matter how you shake my core
'Cause my roots—they run deep, oh

Oh, ye of so little faith
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it
Victory is in my veins
I know it, I know it
And I will not negotiate
I'll fight it, I'll fight it
I will transform

Jesse sings holding her note.

Jesse
When, when the fire's at
My feet again

Jesse singing looking at her feet.

Jesse
And the vultures all start circling
They're whispering,
"You're out of time,"
But still I rise

This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in
Think again
Don't be surprised
I will still rise

Jesse sings and she thinks about Rachel's plan.

Jesse
I must stay conscious
Through the madness and chaos
So I call on my angels

Jesse singing pointing at everyone.

Jesse
They say

New Directions
Oh, ye of so little faith
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it
Victory is in your veins
You know it, you know it
And you will not negotiate
Just fight it, just fight it
And be transformed

Jesse smiles at them and she takes over the song again.

Jesse
'Cause when, when the
Fire's at my feet again
And the vultures all start circling
They're whispering
"You're out of time,"
But still I rise

Jesse sings while pointing her hand in the air.

Jesse
This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in
Think again
Don't be surprised
I will still rise

New Directions
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it

Jesse
Oh, oh, oh, oh

New Directions
You know it, you know it

Jesse
Still rise

New Directions
Just fight it, just fight it

Jesse
Don't be surprised
I will still rise

The song ends and everyone stands up and cheers for her. Jesse smiles at them and she takes a bow while Blaine runs over to her and gives her a hug.
