Copyright 2025, Sam Reid [Verse] Roots in the sky and branches in the ground I could murmur melodies without makin' a sound If I were a songbird Fly around when I want to If I were a songbird Baby I would enchant you [Chorus] If we rise If we rise If we riiiiiise It is through Our shared rhythm, our pitch-perfect harmony If we fall That's another story [Bridge] Now if I were fire Then will you be my kindred? If you could see me flyin' Then baby I should be hindered [pre-chorus] If we rise If we rise If we riiiiiiise It is due to Our dance and our rhythm, and our pitch-perfect harmony If we faaaaaaall That's just another story [Verse 5] Branches in the sky and roots in the ground I could write you novels without leavin' this town As sure as you will flyyyyyyyy Some day you'll be subterranean If I were the night If I were the night (if I were the night) [Chorus] If we rise If we rise If we riiiiiise It is due To our rhythm and our dance and our harmony If we fall If we fall If we fall mmmm It is due To the earth that will crush us with her relentless gravity Wait and see We will rise We will rise We will riiiiiiiiiiise Wait and see [Instrumental]
