Rising Up Songtext
Living from day to day
Now you're out of my life
You bet that I'd never make it
And it cuts like a knife
I know you gave up on me
It was so long ago
When we met we were aiming so high
But it ended so low
Now you're out of my life
You bet that I'd never make it
And it cuts like a knife
I know you gave up on me
It was so long ago
When we met we were aiming so high
But it ended so low
I was so lost and I felt sad
The things that you said just make me mad
You never encouraged me at all
When I tried you said I'd fall
Rising up
Taking the chance I've been given
Rising up I'll throw away the life I've been living
Toxic thoughts inside your head
That I could feel
You said that I would have to beg
Borrow or steal yeah
I was so lost and I felt sad
The things that you said just make me mad
You never encouraged me at all
When I tried you said I'd fall
Rising up Taking the chance I've been given
Rising up I'll throw away the life I've been living
Rising up
Gotta escape from this prison
Rising up
Living my life with new vision
Don't you know
I have to climb a mountain of fear
If I fall you'll never shed a tear
With you, I always felt so small
You were just my obstacle
Gotta escape...
Rising up
Taking the chance I've been given
Rising up
I'll throw away the life I've been living
Rising up
Gotta escape from this prison
Rising up
Living my life with new vision
The things that you said just make me mad
You never encouraged me at all
When I tried you said I'd fall
Rising up
Taking the chance I've been given
Rising up I'll throw away the life I've been living
Toxic thoughts inside your head
That I could feel
You said that I would have to beg
Borrow or steal yeah
I was so lost and I felt sad
The things that you said just make me mad
You never encouraged me at all
When I tried you said I'd fall
Rising up Taking the chance I've been given
Rising up I'll throw away the life I've been living
Rising up
Gotta escape from this prison
Rising up
Living my life with new vision
Don't you know
I have to climb a mountain of fear
If I fall you'll never shed a tear
With you, I always felt so small
You were just my obstacle
Gotta escape...
Rising up
Taking the chance I've been given
Rising up
I'll throw away the life I've been living
Rising up
Gotta escape from this prison
Rising up
Living my life with new vision
