Gonna Rise Up

GONNA RISE UP

Sometimes I feel myself falling

Searching for the face of God

Sometimes I hear voices calling

Telling me I'm a fraud

Sometimes I hear distant laughter

With weightless wings we come and go

What are these things that we chase after

That seem to haunt us so

I ain't gonna fall for that

You see I've been lost for so long

But I'm finding my way back

I ain't gonna fall for that

Yeah, I've been too long running

I'm too broken to crack

This time, I ain't gonna fall

I'm gonna rise up

A little more now everyday

I'm gonna rise up

No matter what they do or say

I'm gonna rise up

Singing Hallelujah babe

I'm gonna rise up

I'm gonna rise up today

Sometimes I see my own reflection

Sometimes it fills me with unease

I've crossed these fields of redemption

To fall upon my knees

And still we peak around these corners

At things that we should say and do

My addiction whispers secrets

And things that aren't true

I ain't gonna fall for that

You see I lost myself here somewhere

On this New York City map

I ain't gonna fall for that

You see I've been too long running

I'm too broken to crack

This time, I ain't gonna fall

I'm gonna rise up

Each day a little higher

I'm gonna rise up

Turn embers into fire babe

I'm gonna rise up

Gonna keep it altogether babe

I'm gonna rise up

I'm gonna rise up today

I'm gonna rise up

A little more now everyday

I'm gonna rise up

No matter what they do or say

I'm gonna rise up

Singing Hallelujah babe

I'm gonna rise up

I'm gonna rise up today
