You Built Me to Rise

Şarkı Sözleri

YOU BUILT ME TO RISE Through the smoke, through the fire, Climbing higher, reaching higher. I've seen the darkness, I've felt the rain, But I'm still here, and I'm alive again. [Verse 1 — Emotional Male Vocals] I've walked alone on a broken road, Carried the weight of a heavy load. Felt the world try to pull me down, Lost my smile, nearly lost my crown. But there's a heartbeat beneath these scars, A little hope underneath the stars. And every time that I hit the ground, I find another reason to turn around. [Pre-Chorus — Drums Building, Guitars Rising] I was lost, but now I see, The strongest man was always inside of me. The storm can rage, the night can fall, I've found the strength to face it all! [Chorus — HUGE UPLIFTING ROCK SOUND] I'M RISING UP, I'M BREAKING FREE! BECOMING THE MAN I'M MEANT TO BE! From the ashes, into the light, I'm taking back my life tonight! YOU KNOCKED ME DOWN, BUT I ROSE AGAIN! TURNED MY SCARS INTO STRENGTH WITHIN! The devil tried, but he couldn't see, THE FIRE THAT WAS BURNING INSIDE OF ME! I'm still standing, I'm still strong, I've been finding my way all along! [Verse 2 — Driving Guitars and Powerful Drums] There's a man in the mirror I barely knew, Fighting battles just to make it through. But now I see something in his eyes, A thousand reasons to reach for the skies. No more living in yesterday, No more letting the fear decide my way. I've got dreams that I'm chasing now, And I won't stop, I won't back down! [Pre-Chorus — Rising Vocals] Every tear was a lesson learned, Every bridge that I crossed, every scar that burned. I may have fallen, but hear me say, THE BEST OF MY LIFE IS STILL ON ITS WAY! [Chorus — Full Band, Soaring Vocals] I'M RISING UP, I'M BREAKING FREE! BECOMING THE MAN I'M MEANT TO BE! From the ashes, into the light, I'm taking back my life tonight! YOU KNOCKED ME DOWN, BUT I ROSE AGAIN! TURNED MY SCARS INTO STRENGTH WITHIN! The devil tried, but he couldn't see, THE FIRE THAT WAS BURNING INSIDE OF ME! I'm still standing, I'm still strong, I've been finding my way all along! [Bridge — Piano, Emotional and Hopeful] To the man who thought he'd never make it, To the heart that broke but wouldn't break, Look how far you've come, look what you've survived, You've got a thousand reasons to feel alive. You don't need to be who you were before, There's a whole new world beyond that door. Leave the shadows where they belong, This is your life, this is your song! [Guitar Solo — Emotional, Melodic, Building to an Explosive Finale] [Final Chorus — Massive Drums, Backing Vocals, Full Power] I'M RISING UP, CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? I'M STANDING TALL, AND I'M PROUD OF HOW I FOUGHT through the darkness, walked through the flame, And came out stronger, no longer the same! YOU KNOCKED ME DOWN, BUT I ROSE AGAIN! THIS IS MY LIFE, THIS IS MY REIGN! The devil couldn't take what belongs to me, MY HEART, MY HOPE, MY DESTINY! I'm still standing, I'm still strong, NOW I KNOW WHERE I BELONG! [Outro — Guitars Ring Out, Piano Returns] The darkness fades… The sunrise calls… I found my strength… I survived it all. You didn't break me… YOU BUILT ME TO RISE! [Final Note — Huge Guitar Chord, Crowd-Style Backing Vocals] I'M ALIVE… AND I'M READY FOR WHAT'S NEXT!
