[Verse] Been knocked down flat on the dirt road Shadows whispered "Let it go" But I held on tight Held on strong To a strength I thought was long gone [Prechorus] Even when the wind cut through my skin I never let the darkness win [Chorus] I rise again I rise again For the love I hold For the hearts I mend With three small hands lifting me high I see the stars break through the sky I rise again Oh I rise again [Verse 2] Empty pockets Echoes of fear Still I walked on Year by year Through the fire Through the rain Every loss carved out my gain [Prechorus] Even when the night swallowed my name I fought back through the burning flame [Chorus] I rise again I rise again For the love I hold For the hearts I mend With three small hands lifting me high I see the stars break through the sky I rise again Oh I rise again
