Broken to Bright

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I wore the bruise like proof Kept my head down low Every door I hit Shook but didn't go I learned the dark by name I knew its heavy weight Still I kept one spark Hidden in the rain [Pre-Chorus] And I heard that small voice say "Get up, get up" Even when my hands shook "Stand up, stand up" [Chorus] I rise, I rise Through the break and bend I rise, I rise I won't fold again From the ash to the blue I keep my word I rise, I rise You will see me hurt [Verse 2] Bare feet on broken ground Blood on my old plans I built a tighter heart With these worn-out hands They said I'd fade away But I'm still in the fight I found a way to breathe Inside the firelight [Pre-Chorus] And I heard that small voice say "Get up, get up" Even when my hands shook "Stand up, stand up" [Chorus] I rise, I rise Through the break and bend I rise, I rise I won't fold again From the ash to the blue I keep my word I rise, I rise You will see me hurt [Bridge] Let it hit, let it break I am not the fall Every scar on my skin Means I stood through it all When the night pressed in I found my own name Now I sing through the pain And I don't feel shame [Final Chorus] I rise, I rise Through the break and bend I rise, I rise I won't fold again From the ash to the blue I keep my word I rise, I rise You will see me hurt I rise, I rise And I still get up I rise, I rise I've had enough From the ash to the blue I keep my word I rise, I rise And I won't go unheard
