Rise above Lyrics

Stepped in the ring, gladiator in the flesh,

Scars tell the tales, no fear of the next test,

Tunnel vision on the prize, eyes laser beams,

Fighting through the trenches, nightmare screams.

Had my back against the wall, no retreat,

Cemetery full of dreams I ain't ready to meet,

Grind 'til the knuckles blister, blood on the frost,

Lose a battle sometimes, never at a loss.

I rise above, shadow breaking through the dawn,

Carry burdens on my shoulders, but I'm still moving on,

No chains can hold me down, I'ma break 'em off,

Eye of the storm, but the fire stays strong.

Warrior heart, pounding through the chest,

Climbing every mountain, never settling for less,

Critics throw stones, buildin' my empire,

Through the ashes, rising higher and higher.

Words cut deep, venom in the spit,

But my armor forged in flames, can't be split,

Audience in my corner, fightin' every round,

Crowd roars louder, feeling heaven-bound.

I rise above, shadow breaking through the dawn,

Carry burdens on my shoulders, but I'm still moving on,

No chains can hold me down, I'ma break 'em off,

Eye of the storm, but the fire stays strong.

Warrior heart, pounding through the chest,

Climbing every mountain, never settling for less,

Critics throw stones, buildin' my empire,

Through the ashes, rising higher and higher.

Words cut deep, venom in the spit,

But my armor forged in flames, can't be split,

Audience in my corner, fightin' every round,

Crowd roars louder, feeling heaven-bound.

I rise above, shadow breaking through the dawn,

Carry burdens on my shoulders, but I'm still moving on,

No chains can hold me down, I'ma break 'em off,

Eye of the storm, but the fire stays strong.

Warrior heart, pounding through the chest,

Climbing every mountain, never settling for less,

Critics throw stones, buildin' my empire,

Through the ashes, rising higher and higher.

Words cut deep, venom in the spit,

But my armor forged in flames, can't be split,

Audience in my corner, fightin' every round,

Crowd roars louder, feeling heaven-bound.
