Mountains Left to Climb

Lyrics

l COMPLETE ORIGINAL SONG LYRICS Intro — Whispered, then screamed I didn't come this far To disappear in the dark You can bury me under a mountain of problems BUT YOU CAN'T BURY MY HEART! Verse 1 I've been walking through the fire with my hands against the flames I've been fighting through the darkness while the world forgot my name Every promise that was broken left another mark on me Every person who abandoned me taught me how to stand on my feet I had nights without an answer, I had mornings without hope Had a thousand reasons telling me I couldn't possibly cope But somewhere in the wreckage, underneath the fear and pain I found a voice inside me screaming, get your ass up again! Pre-Chorus When the walls come crashing down When there's no one left around When your dreams are turning into dust DIG YOUR HEELS INTO THE GROUND LET THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD HEAR THE SOUND YOU STILL GOT A REASON TO GET UP! Chorus — Full stadium vocals I WASN'T BORN TO BREAK! I WAS BORN TO RISE! YOU CAN THROW ME INTO HELL! I'LL COME BACK ALIVE! LET THE THUNDER SHAKE THE GROUND! LET THE LIGHTNING SPLIT THE SKY! YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY EVERYTHING! BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE MY FIGHT! OH OH OH! I WASN'T BORN TO BREAK! OH OH OH! I WAS BORN TO RISE! Verse 2 I don't need a perfect future, I don't need an easy road I just need the strength to carry what this life has made me hold I've been judged by my mistakes, I've been measured by my scars But nobody sees the battles that I fought to get this far I've seen good people surrender when the pressure got too strong I've seen dreamers lose their courage when the nights became too long So if you're standing at the bottom, thinking there's no way to climb Grab the pieces of your courage, start rebuilding one at a time Pre-Chorus 2 When your back's against the wall And you're terrified to fall When your voice is barely making any sound TAKE THE PAIN AND MAKE IT POWER TAKE THE FEAR AND FACE THE HOUR YOU'RE NOT FINISHED JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE DOWN! Chorus I WASN'T BORN TO BREAK! I WAS BORN TO RISE! YOU CAN THROW ME INTO HELL! I'LL COME BACK ALIVE! LET THE THUNDER SHAKE THE GROUND! LET THE LIGHTNING SPLIT THE SKY! YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY EVERYTHING! BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE MY FIGHT! Bridge — Slow emotional vocals, then heavy breakdown I remember every night When I thought I'd lost my way When the mirror showed a stranger And I had nothing left to say But I found a little courage In the things I couldn't change And I learned that every ending Could be where a new life begins Drums stop. One distorted guitar rings out. You think I'm done? YOU THINK I'M FINISHED? YOU THINK A LITTLE PAIN CAN MAKE ME QUIT? Massive double-kick drums and guitar breakdown. I'VE BEEN BROKEN! I'VE BEEN BURNED! I'VE LOST EVERYTHING I'VE EARNED! BUT I'M STILL HERE! I'M STILL ALIVE! AND I'VE GOT ONE MORE MOUNTAIN LEFT TO CLIMB! Final Chorus — Explosive I WASN'T BORN TO BREAK! I WAS BORN TO RISE! EVERY SCAR BECAME A STORY! EVERY TEAR TAUGHT ME TO FIGHT! LET THE THUNDER SHAKE THE GROUND! LET THE LIGHTNING SPLIT THE SKY! YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY EVERYTHING! BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE MY FIGHT! OH OH OH! I WASN'T BORN TO BREAK! OH OH OH! I WAS BORN TO RISE! Outro — Spoken over fading electric guitar This is BEZBEZ. To anybody who feels defeated tonight... Your worst chapter doesn't have to be your final chapter. You don't need to conquer the world tomorrow. Just find the strength to take one more step. And remember... YOU WEREN'T BORN TO BREAK!
