Rise

I won't just survive

Oh, you will see me thrive

Can't write my story

I'm beyond the archetype

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

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

This is no mistake, no accident

When you think the final nail is in; think again

Don't be surprised, I will still rise

I must stay conscious

Through the madness and chaos

So I call on my angels

They say...

(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

’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

This is no mistake, no accident

When you think the final nail is in; think again

Don't be surprised, I will still rise

(Don't doubt it, don't doubt it)

Oh, oh, oh, oh

(You know it, you know it)

Still rise

(Just fight it, just fight it)

Don't be surprised, I will still rise
