The tides are growing, your words are pulling me down
This sinking motion creates an ocean of doubt... Doubt
I'm just reaching for breath hoping someone's left on my side
Like the sun...
I'm gonna rise, walk through this fire
With my life passing by I can't help but try
I'm gonna rise... I am gonna rise
I'm pushing currents and finding courage in me
The timing's urgent but I am worth it you'll see... You'll see
Cause now I'm swimming with the sharks, trying to make a mark on this world
Like the sun...
I'm gonna rise, walk through this fire
With my life passing by I can't help but try
I'm gonna rise... I am gonna rise
Yeah it's time to give up insecurity
Oh it's time to live up to what we can be
They can say what they want, they're too blind to see
Oh it's time to live up to what we can be
I'm gonna rise, walk through this fire
With my life passing by I can't help but try
I'm gonna rise
I'm gonna rise, walk through this fire
Like rockets in the sky I can't help but fly,
I'm gonna rise
I am gonna rise
I am gonna rise
I am going rise
I am gonna rise
I am gonna rise
I am going rise
I am gonna rise
I am gonna rise
