Brick by Brick Written/Composed by Christie Korth

[Verse 1] I came with a notebook, came with a scar Came from the back, now I know who we are Read every lesson off a cracked classroom wall If I trip, I get up, I don’t fold, I don’t fall My mom said, "Girl, keep your head on high" My block said, "Run it back, don’t let dreams die" So I write what I learned in the fire and the rain Turn pain into proof, turn loss into gain [Pre-Chorus] Look at me now I made a way Brick by brick Day by day They said, "Stay small" I said, "Watch me grow" One hard fact One bright glow [Chorus] Keep it moving, keep it up We learn, we rise, we don’t give up Keep it moving, keep it up Hope in my chest, and I’m good enough Keep it moving, keep it up We learn, we rise, we don’t give up Keep it moving, keep it up Say it with me now, we’re strong enough [Verse 2] I learned the names of the bones in the hand Learned how a seed turns soil to a plan Learned how a sentence can open a door Learned how to stand when you’ve fallen before Use your voice like a key in a lock Use your mind like a light in the dark If they count you out, let the numbers collide Add one more step, then let hope decide [Pre-Chorus] Look at me now I made a way Brick by brick Day by day They said, "Stay small" I said, "Watch me grow" One hard fact One bright glow [Chorus] Keep it moving, keep it up We learn, we rise, we don’t give up Keep it moving, keep it up Hope in my chest, and I’m good enough Keep it moving, keep it up We learn, we rise, we don’t give up Keep it moving, keep it up Say it with me now, we’re strong enough [Bridge] I know the nights can look too long I know the road can hit too hard But every name I ever wrote Was a step toward the stars So pass me the chalk I’ll pass the flame What you know today Can change your name [Chorus] Keep it moving, keep it up We learn, we rise, we don’t give up Keep it moving, keep it up Hope in my chest, and I’m good enough Keep it moving, keep it up We learn, we rise, we don’t give up Keep it moving, keep it up Say it with me now, we’re strong enough
