I Rise...

A twist of fate

A change of heart

Finds me here now

I’m conflicted. 

A past mistake

And a new start

Finds me here now

I’m rejected 

We’re all just trying to figure it out

And how the universe places us

A bunch of pawns at the mercy

Of a guarded royalty

Yet I keep my head up

My sights set high

I won’t allow myself

To be at the bottom

I rise...

Higher...

I rise!

Where is the lie

It’s the truth that

Finds you here now

Just honestly

Don’t be so sly

Say what you lack

Finds you here now

It’s good for me 

It’s good to see what it’s all about 

Don’t let your past make you any less

Despite the flaws I can still see 

Potential in you and me

I refuse to give up

My hopes are high

All I have is myself

I’ll rise from the bottom 

I rise...

Higher...

I rise!

Don’t give up now

Know that the past

Finds us here now

And that’s okay
