Rise Lyrics

I'm like a bird; I've traveled thousands of miles

I don't belong anywhere anymore

I left my home when I was far too young

And I don't know if I'll ever come back

Looking for the next big thing, my bags always packed

Trying to keep it cool

Freaking out about the future

Except when I'm with you

Predators everywhere

They want a piece of me

Well, they can come and try to get it

You can't clip my wings; you won't catch me

I refuse to be tethered

Love already set me free

Love already set me free

Always alert, my guards always up

No one knows who I am

It's only a matter of time

Till I can call this home mine

Tough times don't last; this I know is true

Spread my wings; all I needed was you

I will rise.... I won't stay down for long

I will rise...I will show that I belong

Even when I fall and it seems to hard to fly

I will rise... with help from those I love

And I will rise...even when the wind gets rough

Predators everywhere

They want a piece of me

Well, they can come and try to get it

You can't clip my wings; you won't catch me

I refuse to be tethered

Love already set me free

Love already set me free

I will rise.... I won't stay down for long

I will rise...I will show that I belong

I will rise... with help from those I love

And I will rise...even when the wind gets rough
