Rise Together, Grade by Grade

Lyrics

[Verse 1 – KG] We were learning A-B-C Now we’re who we’re meant to be Little steps but big dreams Nothing’s ever what it seems We were laughing, we were free Now there’s more for us to see Every color, every sound This is where our dreams are found [Verse 2 – Grades 1–5] Step by step, we’re getting there Learning how to dream and dare Every lesson, every try Gets us closer to the sky Still a journey, still we grow There’s so much we want to know Not the end, we’re on our way To a brighter, bigger day [Pre-Chorus] Every level that we take Is a move we choose to make [Chorus] We level up, we don’t give up Through every high and every tough From where we start to who we are We’ve been shining from afar Side by side, we made it through Every dream is coming true Smart Global Education, we will stay In our hearts every day [Verse 3 – Grade 6] Now we’re ready for what’s next Feeling stronger, feeling blessed We’ve been tested, we’ve been tried Still we’re standing side by side This is just another phase Another step, another raise We keep going, we won’t stop We’re just getting to the top [Verse 4 – Grades 7–9] Finding out who we can be Chasing every possibility Through the pressure, through the doubt We’re still figuring it out Not perfect, but we try Reaching for a higher sky Every fall just makes us rise Stronger, braver, even wiser [Verse 5 – Grade 10] Now we’re stepping through the door Different than we were before New beginnings, bigger plans Taking chances while we can This completion is our sign That we’re ready for the climb We move forward, no delay This is our defining day [Verse 6 – Grade 11] Almost there, we feel it now We remember every “how” Late nights, dreams, and sacrifice Moments we won’t think twice Still one step before the end But we’re stronger than we’ve been We’re preparing, we believe In the future we will lead [Bridge – Grade 12] Now we’re here, we made it through Every doubt we ever knew All the nights we stayed awake All the risks we had to take This goodbye’s a brand new start Different roads but same heart We’re not scared of what’s ahead We’ll remember what was said [Final Chorus] We level up, we don’t give up Through every high and every tough From our past to what’s to come This is where we’re rising from Graduates and dreamers all Yeah, we answered every call Smart Global, we will stay Lighting up our way [Outro] Different paths, but we’re the same Different lives, one shared name Smart Global Education We’ll never be the same
